Otago: Exercise for Fall Prevention by Mt Sinai Health
Otago: Exercise for Fall Prevention by Mt Sinai Health: Otago is a one-hour session of the Otago Exercise Program—17 strength and balance exercises—held 10/15/26 from 3:00pm–4:00pm in the Auditorium at Long Beach Public Library. Registration is required (opens 10/08/2026 @ 6:30pm; ends 10/15/2026 @ 2:45pm); LBPL cardholders are prioritized while non-cardholders may register to be placed on a “pending waitlist” and will be emailed if seats open 72 hours before the program. The program is for people 60 years and over who have had a fall in the past year or are fearful of falling and are not suffering from dementia; the source states participants will experience a 35–40% reduction in falls in high-risk older adults, improvements in functional performance measures, and improvements in perceived abilities.
