Did you know that 1 in 2 women will be diagnosed with osteoporosis in their lifetime? Chances are you know someone who has or will develop osteoporosis. LET'S CHANGE THAT!
In July, American Bone Health wants people to think about their personal independence by staying strong and fracture free so they can live a long and healthy life.
Based on the seniors medical history, we will provide older adults tips on nutrition, proper exercise, fall prevention strategies, and further screening.
We need your help to:
- Set-up and questionnaire intake (medical history)
- Bone Health Consultations (personalized tips for the senior to take control of their bone health)
Medical background is not required, but a bonus!
Training:
You will receive a training manual with your role, training videos, and materials.
Location: John H. Ammon Medical Education Center
