Kentucky Association of Adult Day Centers Conference

As the Fall Prevention Lady, I was honored to present two fall prevention workshops at the Annual KAAD (Kentucky Association of Adult Day Care Centers) conference in Lexington, KY. My first presentation discussed fall risk factors and the second presentation engaged participants in a fall prevention exercise routine. Kentucky has a strong system of adult day centers that provide both medical and social services to older adults in need and reducing the risk of falls is one of those needs. It was so exciting when Governor Steve Beshear, the Attorney General and the Secretary of State stopped in to say hello at the conference!

I have met some amazing people and learned a lot about thriving adult day centers. Unfortunately California's deplorable financial situation has led to the reduction and practical elimination of such centers. One has to wonder what will happen to older adults who cannot afford medical services, to families that are caring for an aging loved one, and older adults who are living in isolation. Adult day centers provide services that help older adults remain in their homes as well as provide respite for loved ones.

My fall prevention exercise series, Take 5 to Exercise, is a practical way to reduce fall risk. These educational DVDs guide the follower through seated stretching and strengthening exercises designed to reduce the risk of fall. The Take 5 to Exercise training principles are evidence-based and proven to work when followed consistently. As a result of the poor economy, I have drastically reduced the price of these fall prevention DVDs.

Fall Prevention speaker at KAAD

The administrator of American Health Management system in Kentucky has invited me to be a keynote speaker at the KAAD conference in August! The Kentucky Association of Adult Day centers is a professional organization whose motto is to Activate, Motivate and Rehabilitate. I love it! These adult day centers provide care to those who need assistance in daily life and offer respite for those who provide care for those individuals.

I have attended my fair share of conferences and I love learning. It is an honor to be the one who will be presenting! Even though I have been presenting fall prevention workshops throughout the Sacramento region for two years, it's a dream come true that i will be presenting to professionals. In Kentucky! Talk about growth!

Praise the Lord!
