| The Balance and Mobility
Specialist Instructor Certificate Program is designed to provide
health care professionals with the knowledge and practical skills
necessary to develop and implement fall risk reduction programs in
their communities. Balance and mobility disorders, resulting in falls
among the elderly population, pose a serious public health problem
in the United States. This fact, coupled with the knowledge that adults
over the age of 65 years represent the fastest growing population
in the United States, suggests an immediate need for activity programs
specifically designed to reduce physical frailty and the rising incidence
of falls among the older adult population. The balance and mobility
specialist instructor program was developed in response to this need.
The Center for Successful Aging has also compile the following list of
Balance and Mobility Training Classes
in the Orange County Area. Information can be requested by utilizing the contact information provided for each of the Classes.
The Outdoor Explorations Program provides golf lessons, outings, and tournaments for the beginner as well as the more advanced golfer.
