• Same-Level Falls – These types of falls occur when someone falls, trips, or slips on a level surface. Same-level falls are the most common type of falls and typically occur when an individual walks on a slippery surface, missteps when traveling up or down the stairs, or trips on an object obstructing their path.

• Elevated Falls – These types of falls occur when someone falls from a higher surface to a less elevated area. A smaller percentage of falls are from an elevated surface; however, they are often the cause of more serious injuries.
