Active At Home

Active at Home is an in-home exercise program facilitated by trained care workers. The program, which includes five strength and three balance exercises, has been specifically designed by exercise physiologists to reduce age-related decline in older people. The strength exercises will help improve independence in daily activities such as lifting or bending.

The program is an Australian first that adds value not only to the quality of life of recipients but also to the in-home care workforce by up-skilling care workers. It also offers organisations a holistic health program to add to their suite of services.

The Active at Home program emphasises holistic wellbeing by bolstering physical health in addition to emotional and mental health by way of goal-setting, and a strengthened interpersonal connection between a client and their care worker.
