- The Special Needs unit is excited to offer a new program beginning in January 2015, called 50+ Move On. This program will provide education on physical activity and nutrition that clients can apply to their daily life. Individuals over the age of 50 with a body mass index of =35 and a second comorbidity (e.g. arthritis, diabetes, hypertension) are invited to register. The goal of this program is to increase knowledge and motivation of participants to live a healthy lifestyle that can not only be maintained, but enjoyed as well.
Participants will begin their days with physical activity (varying between cardio, resistance and aquafit classes led by professional instructors), followed by meal preparation and cooking while learning about a pre-determined topic relating to healthy living. Many topics will be addressed during the eight week session; including: “New Beginnings”, “Overcoming Obstacles”, home exercises and preparing healthy meals. The 50+ Move On program brings together individuals in similar circumstances to foster a positive, peer supported environment to encourage enthusiasm, comfort and friendship.
