Lean all about gait and balance

SUNSHINE CLUB

Dr. Sophie Chun from OptumCare will talk about gait and balance at the next Sunshine Club meeting on Friday, Feb. 19, at 10 a.m.

Gait and balance disorders are common in older adults and are a major cause of falls. This often leads to injury, disability, loss of independence and limited quality of life. Being evaluated for gait and balance can help prevent falls.
