Healthy Moves
Healthy Moves provides a simple exercise program for frail older adults, designed to build strength, increase flexibility, reduce falls and decrease pain. The program is provided by trained coaches who may be caregivers or care managers, in the participant's home or community settings.
The coaches also provide motivational phone support to help their senior clients set goals for improved physical health and plan next steps for incorporating exercise into everyday living.
