A Matter of Balance: Group V – Online
A Matter of Balance online is a 9 session structured group intervention that strategizes to reduce fear of falling and increase activity levels. Participants learn to view falls and fear of falling as controllable, set realistic goals to increase activity, change their environment to reduce fall risk factors, and exercise to increase strength and balance. This program consists of group discussion; strength, balance, & flexibility exercise during session 4-9, and a Guest Health Care Professional (GHP) visit to demonstrate safe techniques for getting down to the ground and getting up from a fall. Sessions are 2 hours twice a week for 4 weeks, and will meet online via Zoom – all you need is an internet-connected device. Registration is required.

A staff member will reach out to explain the registration process including completing a survey and provide the Zoom link. Must have camera on for safety. Minimum required: 10 participants.
