Abstract
ABSTRACTResearch has consistently shown that older people are vulnerable to falls and have a fear of falling. One low-cost community-based education program, A Matter of Balance/Volunteer Lay Leader Model (AMOB/VLL), has demonstrated promise in reducing falls in this population. This article presents findings from a secondary analysis of program outcome indicators. The analysis suggests positive outcomes from the program, including enhanced fall prevention self-efficacy, increased knowledge of participants, and positive participant feedback. These initial findings will provide important baseline data for funding to continue the AMOB/VLL program.
