Otago: Exercise for Fall Prevention by Mt Sinai Health
Otago: Exercise for Fall Prevention by Mt Sinai Health: This one-hour Otago Exercise Program session, led by Mt Sinai Health, covers a series of 17 strength and balance exercises and takes place 10/29/26 from 3:00pm–4:00pm in the Auditorium of the Main Library. Registration is required (starts 10/22/2026 @ 6:30pm; ends 10/29/2026 @ 2:45pm); LBPL cardholders are prioritized while non-cardholders may register for a pending waitlist and, if seats open 72 hours before the program, will receive an email confirming registration. The program is for people 60 years and over who have had a fall in the past year or are fearful of falling and who are not suffering from dementia; listed participant outcomes include a 35–40% reduction in falls in high-risk older adults, improvements in functional performance measures, and improvements in perceived abilities.
