A Matter of Balance (MOB) addresses the threat of falling, one of the major problems of this population. MOB Master Training took place on the UTC Campus on March 16 \u2013 17.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA lot of it is about engaging older adults in this conversation and to spread the message of falls management and fall prevention. Older adults come to these classes, either because they\u2019ve had a fall and want to prevent more or because they\u2019re being proactive. Once there, they get to be very social and learn from each other,\u201d said Patti League, RN, A Matter of Balance Lead Trainer and Program Manager.<\/p>\n<p>A Matter of Balance was developed by Boston University and MaineHealth Partnership for Healthy Aging and is offered in 38 states across the U.S. Older adults attend eight 2-hour sessions, in which they make changes to reduce fall risk at home, exercise to increase strength and balance, and set realistic goals for increasing physical activity.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2015\/03\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-07.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" data-attachment-id=\"13423\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/2015\/03\/matter-of-balance-master-training-offered-at-utc\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-07\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2015\/03\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-07.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"900,600\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Jaimie Davis&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;NIKON D800&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1426515068&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;36&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;2500&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.005&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-07\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2015\/03\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-07.jpg\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-13423\" src=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2015\/03\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-07-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Nursing Matter of Balance training\" style=\"max-width: 100%;\"style=\"max-width: 100%;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2015\/03\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-07-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2015\/03\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-07-580x387.jpg 580w, https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2015\/03\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-07-610x407.jpg 610w, https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2015\/03\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-07-250x167.jpg 250w, https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2015\/03\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-07-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2015\/03\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-07.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\u201cPeople come away from the training feeling like they are part of the solution. They\u2019ve increased their own self efficacy, that belief that they can make a difference and that they\u2019re in charge of their lives. They know that they can make efforts to prevent falls, that they\u2019re not waiting for the next one to happen, that they\u2019re being proactive. That\u2019s why it\u2019s a popular program,\u201d League said.<\/p>\n<p>In MOB Master Training, people were trained to become Master Trainers who can then train lay coaches throughout the southeast region to provide free MOB workshops to people who are at risk of debilitating falls and disabilities at locations where seniors populate, such as senior centers and assisted living facilities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think this is a great program and I\u2019m glad to have this opportunity to help people in our growing aging population have a better quality of life. We have a neighborhood exercise wellness program, and we have a seniors group, and I knew from working with this group that falls are one of their big concerns. So, if I can do anything to help educate them on preventing falls, I wanted to do that,\u201d said Monica Burke from City of Chattanooga Youth and Family Development, one of the participants in the MOB Master Training.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe thing that has influenced me the most is that, as long as a senior can stay active, at whatever his or her level may be, that will create a better future for them. If they are inactive, they start restricting their activities, not going anywhere anymore because they are scared they are going to fall. I don\u2019t want them to feel like prisoners in their own home,\u201d continued Burke.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2015\/03\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-04.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" data-attachment-id=\"13424\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/2015\/03\/matter-of-balance-master-training-offered-at-utc\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-04\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2015\/03\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-04.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"900,600\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;Jaimie Davis&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;NIKON D800&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1426514864&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;48&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;2500&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.005&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-04\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2015\/03\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-04.jpg\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-13424\" src=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2015\/03\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-04-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Nursing Matter of Balance training\" style=\"max-width: 100%;\"style=\"max-width: 100%;\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2015\/03\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-04-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2015\/03\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-04-580x387.jpg 580w, https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2015\/03\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-04-610x407.jpg 610w, https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2015\/03\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-04-250x167.jpg 250w, https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2015\/03\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-04-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/files\/2015\/03\/nursing-2015-matter-of-balance-training-04.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>After a competitive application process, twenty professionals representing healthcare, social services, higher education, local government, wellness, and other sectors were chosen to participate in this March training.
