The Safe and Independent Living Program provides information and advice about home safety and falls prevention for residents of Moreland.
The service includes advice on making your home safe and education around a range of issues such as foot care, exercise, vision and diet.
The Occupational Therapist visits residents at home and can make recommendations about minor home modifications which will increase safety and help older people stay in their homes for as long as possible. Recommendations can vary from the installation of a ramp or simply a grab rail on the shower wall.
There is also an eight week program which combines falls prevention education with exercises. Participants learn to identify their risk factors for falls and given practical tips and exercises to reduce the risk of falls.
The eight week course runs though out the year on Friday afternoons at our Coburg site.
