This is a freely downloadable home exercise booklet based on the Otago home exercise programme to prevent falls. An individualized, progressive home exercise programme,focusing on resistance and balance training, demonstrated to be effective in reducing falls in older home-dwelling adults
Based on the Otago individualised, progressive home exercise programme (Campbell & Robertson, 1997, 2001 etc), produced by Later Life Training.
It should be given as an additional home exercise programme in conjunction with a group based class, however, if there are no classes available then the older person can do these at home, with the aid of ankle weights.
