Stepping On

A fall could change everything. One in four people age 65 or older has a fall each year. You don't have to be one of them. Stepping On has been researched and proven to reduce falls by 30%! Stepping On is an evidence-based program that can help you avoid a dangerous and costly fall so you can keep doing the things you love to do. 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 and to get back on your feet the right way if you do fall. This program is sponsored by Aurora Health Care, Racine County Aging & Disability Resource Center, and Wisconsin Institute for Healthy Aging.
