Course Content
Exercise and physical activity has an important part to play in promoting good health, management of illness and disease, functional independence and fitness, quality of life and the general confidence and autonomy of older adults.
To engage this age group in contemplating and doing more physical activity it is important to make it accessible, safe, effective and appropriate to meet their needs. Once this is achieved greater responsibility for ones health may occur.
The course is designed to equip volunteers, care workers and those within or having an interest in the care, health and fitness of older adults, with the underpinning knowledge and practical application to mentor and deliver physical activity sessions to older adults. Within the Course various issues are explored and actual demonstrations, participation and practice of the material is undertaken.
The main areas that are covered include:
- Why target older adults to do physical activity
- What we mean by older adults and how do we see this group in relation to exercise
