More than 1,941 falls in past year

The Island's ambulance service says it can't tell how many of its callouts involved elderly people falling at home.

A freedom of information request asked for figures covering the last year.

However, the age of the patient isn't recorded and its computer systems don't say whether the fall was at home.

But the organisation says it was alerted to 1,941 falls over the past 12 months.
