Every year in France, 2 million falls by people over 65 are responsible for 10,000 deaths, the leading cause of accidental death, and more than 130,000 hospitalizations. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the evolution of mobility in older people living in nursing homes, following 12 foot health workshops, carried out by a health professional, including the wearing of minimalist shoes.
