YGBW celebrated National Falls Prevention Month in September with lobby chats, balance demos and by kicking off our fall session of A Matter of Balance, an evidence-based program that teaches practical strategies to reduce the fear of falling. 

While we put an extra emphasis on Falls Prevention strategies this month, we also offer classes on a regular basis that help participants increase strength and balance, which can reduce the risk of falling.

To celebrate Falls Prevention Month, our President and CEO, Bertram L. Lawson II participated in an Aqua Arthritis class at our Kennett Square branch. Watch as his wellness journey continues - in the pool this month!
