Understanding the condition
Osteoporosis weakens the bones and greatly increases the risk of fracture, particularly in post-menopausal women. In Marrakech, falls at home — slippery tiled floors, rugs, stairs — are a major danger for patients with osteoporosis. Home nursing care includes administering bisphosphonate injections, carrying out blood tests (calcium, vitamin D, bone markers), assessing the risk of falling and gentle mobilisation exercises. Our qualified nurses work in coordination with your rheumatologist to adapt the treatment and prevent disabling fractures of the hip, vertebrae or wrist.
