ADDRESSING FALLS THROUGH COMMUNITY-ACADEMIC PARTNERSHIPS
In this colloquium, our speakers, Dr. Cathy Elrod and Dr. Sara Pappa shared key project elements and lessons they learned from the development of a collaboration between Marymount University and community-based senior-focused organizations to adopt and implement three evidence-based falls prevention programs, Stay Active and Independent for Life (SAIL), a Matter of Balance (MOB), and the Otago Exercise Program, in an area where none previously existed.
