Healthy Steps for Older Adults: A Program to Prevent Falls Thurs, Apr 23

Debbie Sanders, RN from the Union-Snyder Agency on Aging, Inc. and Ashley Geiser, Community Health and Wellness Instructor from Evangelical Community Hospital, will be presenting a program on fall prevention.  You will learn what your risk of falling is, and what healthy steps you can take to prevent falls and stay active.  Anyone over age 50 may attend, but the program is especially valuable for people age 60 and older.  Participants may reside in any county, not restricted to only Union or Snyder.

This program will be offered on Thursday, April 23, 9:00 am – 12:30 pm, at the Penns Creek Adult Resource Center, 3551 Richard Road, Penns Creek, PA 17862. 

The program is free and includes fall risk screening, a book, healthy snacks, and door prizes.  To register, call the Union-Snyder Agency on Aging, Inc. at 570-374-5558, Mon- Fri, 8:30 am – 4:00 pm.

If you live in Union or Snyder County and need a ride to get to this program call the Union Snyder Transportation Alliance (USTA) at 570-522-1390 or toll free at 1-877-877-9021.  The deadline to call USTA in order to be guaranteed a trip is no later than 10:00 am the business day prior to the requested trip.  USTA strongly encourages consumers to call several days ahead of time.
