COSCO Workshops DESCRIPTIONS:
Preventing Falls
We review the alarming impact falls have on the well-being of seniors and identify hazards that contribute to the likelihood of falls. We recommend safeguards and demonstrate exercises to improve balance and strength.
Life Planning
The wisdom of having a life plan is emphasized:
Representation Agreements, Powers of Attorney, and Advance Directives are needed to express your wishes regarding personal care, certain financial matters and end of life care if you are no longer able to speak for yourself.
