Stepping On

The Stepping On program consists of a workshop that meets for two hours a week for seven weeks. Workshops are led by a health professional and a peer leader – someone who, just like you, is concerned about falls. In addition, local guest experts provide information on exercise, vision, safety and medications.

Topics include:

• Simple and fun balance and strength training
• The role that vision plays in keeping your balance
• How medications can contribute to falls
• Ways to keep from falling when out in your community
• What to look for in safe footwear
• How to eliminate falls hazards from your home

Stepping On is designed specifically for anyone who:

• Is 60 years or older
• Has had a fall in the past year

Classes are offered throughout the year.
