What inspired us to produce an age friendly product?
We observed a need for wellness programming specifically for older, medically involved
adults, supported by an understanding of geriatric activity tolerance in promoting functional
independence and maintaining gains in wellness of aging seniors, even those considered frail
…Inactivity has been shown to increase the risk for illness and increased cost and dependency.
What inspired founder ? Inspired by a love for the elderly and because our author’s
geriatric family members needed to improve their physical, social and emotional wellbeing
simply and at low cost this program came to exist.
Dissatisfied with the medical model of medicare coverage for therapies and its confusing
reimbursement procedures limiting developed skills use and in understanding the lack of
motivation for the senior client to exercise for functional independence. This program product
had to be made available.
