How to Accelerate Functional Independence and Reduce Falls from the Ground Up
Saturday September 28, 2024 2:00pm - 3:30pm MDT
Medically complex and frail patients are rapidly rising because of an aging population with chronic conditions, compounded by COVID-19. Healthcare providers need evidence-based strategies that can restore balance and mobility safely and efficiently while reducing fall risk.

Proprioceptive training that includes range of motion and strengthening exercises will be reviewed and practiced during this interactive lecture.
