Who is Viconic and what are they doing at a State Veterans Home conference?   

We’re family and families help each other. For our new friends in the VA, we’ve been part of your extended military family since 2012, protecting our warfighters in theater. Our blast-mitigating floor mats, seat cushions, and head impact protection technologies are trusted by the US military.  Over 75% of the wheeled vehicle fleet is deployed with Viconic technology.  

Viconic Health is deploying Fall Defense to help veterans and their care family wherever they call home – because falls happen despite all our best efforts to prevent them.  

What is Fall Defense?  

It’s our patented military grade flooring underlay that substantially reduces the risk of severe and critical falls related injuries and is 100% made in USA. We’re fighting gravity and our aging bodies with an entirely new intervention in healthcare with proven technology. It’s simple to install above the rigid surface responsible for the fall injury like tile and concrete. It’s loose laid and adhered to a commercial grade flexible floor covering like resilient sheet, LVT, broadloom carpet, and carpet tile.  It’s compatible with 100’s of VA approved flooring products and finishes.  

It’s simple to install and then stands guard 24/7 for 10+ years and never eats, sleeps, or complains. It’s engineered to be firm to support mobility while reducing wear and tear on the caregiver and risk of critical/severe fall injury at the same time. 

How do you learn more about Fall Defense? 

We’ll be exhibiting in booth 501 at the NASVH conference in Orlando August 13th and 14th. Our booth is located right at the entrance. We will be performing head impact testing from our booth and also hosting a vendor spotlight session there Tuesday at 1:40.
