Community Program on Falls Prevention

Past event
Sep 29, 2015, 1 to 3 PM

Are you or someone you love worried about falling? One in three adults age 65 and older fall each year. The Vermont chapter of the American Physical Therapy Association wants to help reduce your risk for falling. During September, National Falls Awareness Month, the Vermont APTA will present "Stay Steady Vermont"- free balance screenings for adults over 65. Each event will offer an informational session followed by individualized balance screenings by licensed Physical Therapists using the CDC approved STEADI criteria. Please wear comfortable clothing and shoes. Contact Linda Hazard, PT at Mt. Ascutney Hospital at 802-674-7295 if you have any questions pertaining to the balance screening. TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 29 AT 1:00 UNTIL 3:00 IN THE WINDSOR VILLAGE COMMUNITY ROOM ON 65 STATE ST WINDSOR VT. Co-sponsored by SASH , Support and Services at Home.
