Upon start of service we assess our members with a very in-depth test battery in order to find the root cause of said concerns. We then conduct a condensed assessment every 6-8 weeks with our members utilizing a rotating schedule with our VALD Force Decks. We use this information in a number of ways to better serve our members. How do we use it? We now know, which this member presents various subjective measures such as low energy level and mood disturbances it also affects their muscle function, thus increasing fall risk or other adverse event. Should the subjective measures appear it is an indication those involved in caring must be especially attentive on the given day to ensure an adverse event does not occur. Upon sharing with the family, we can understand if medication changes had occurred, which may be playing a role. This alters our exercise programming on the given day in which subjective measures are noted. Knowing force, power and balance all decrease on a day mentioned above, we may scale back our exercise programming to ensure safety and well being for the member. #livewell #health #healthcare #homecare #seniors #aging #agingcare #homehealthcare #VALD #exercise #fitness #physicaltherapy #exercisephysiology #successfulaging #seniorfitness
