What components are included in the Seniors in Motion program?

The Seniors in Motion program is a comprehensive health and wellness initiative designed specifically for seniors. It includes several key components, each of which targets different aspects of aging to provide a holistic approach to senior health. First, we conduct a pre-program assessment to evaluate each participant's current health status. This helps us tailor the program to meet their specific needs. After completing the program, we conduct a post-program assessment to measure progress and determine areas for potential improvement. Exercise sessions are a vital part of our program. Guided by experienced professionals, these sessions aim to improve strength and mobility, both crucial for maintaining independence and overall well-being. We also offer educational workshops on various topics like nutrition, pelvic health, arthritic care, pharmaceutical interventions, and falls prevention. These workshops are designed to empower seniors with the knowledge and tools they need to manage their health effectively, enabling them to live independently for as long as possible. By participating in our program, seniors not only improve their physical health but also gain valuable knowledge and social connections that contribute to their overall quality of life.
