Many chronic conditions such as heart disease or diabetes may contribute to impaired balance and decreased mobility. Among older adults, falls are the leading cause of both fatal and nonfatal injuries that may result in limited mobility. In 2013, 2.5 million adults were treated in the ER with falls-related injuries and up to 30 percent of those who fall suffer injuries severe enough to affect their ability to live independently. These incidents resulted in $30 billion in direct medical costs in Moving For Better Balance works to improve balance, muscle strength, flexibility, and mobility to enhance overall physical health, which leads to better functioning in daily activities. Participation in the program may also result in better mental health, reduced stress, improved memory and cognition, and increased self-esteem.
