Stepping On: FREE Fall Prevention Workshop
July 19 @ 9:00 am - 11:00 am
Don’t let a fall cramp your style!
One in four people age 65 or older have a fall each year. You don’t have to be one of them.
Join NMC for a seven week course on fall prevention! You’ll meet every Friday, from July 19 to August 30, at Trinity Heights United Methodist Church in Newton.
Stepping on can help you avoid a dangerous and costly fall so you can keep doing the things you love. In just seven weeks, you’ll learn:
- To identify and remove or avoid fall hazards in your home and outside
- How vision, hearing, medication and footwear affect your risk of falling
- Strength and balance exercises you can adapt to your individual level
- To get back on your feet the right way if you do fall
To register, call NMC at (316) 804-6222 or fill out the registration form. Registration deadline in July 5.
Free for the first 20 participants. Made possible through a grant from Kansas Department of Health and Environment.
