Community Spotlight: Seniors Take Class To Prepare & Prevent Falls

15 seniors are gathering every Monday at the Brainerd Library participating in an eight-week course to ease their minds about falling. The instructors say it’s important to get our seniors thinking about the best ways to take care of themselves.

The eight-week course goes over everything from obstacles around their house they could trip on like throw rugs to what to do if they’re caught in a fast moving crowd. And the instructors say the students will be getting up and active during the course.

While the instructors say this course is already filled, there will be more courses in the future seniors can join. And for more information about those course visit our links page on our website at www.lptv.org/links.
