NORWAY — The SMH Physical Rehabilitation department offers a free monthly balance program, “Staying on Your Feet,” for all adults ages 60 and older. Did you know one in three people age 65 and older fall each year? Those numbers increase to one in two people at the age of 80.
“Staying on Your Feet” will help you learn how to keep your balance and stay fit. This free one-time class includes a balance screening consisting of blood pressure, leg strength and timing of walking and standing balance.
Classes are held the second Thursday of every month from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. at the Harper Conference Center in the Ripley Medical Office Building, 193 Main St. For more information or to register call 207-744-6160 or visit www.wmhcc.org/smhrehab.
