Description

We are collaborating with members (Jane Fumich, Director and Mary McNamara, Manager)
from Cleveland Department of Aging to develop a videotaped 3 segment in-home exercise
program which will be broadcast on channel TV20 (public access station affiliated with the
City of Cleveland) for elderly individuals. The purpose is to: i.) explore the feasibility of
offering a home-based video to promote exercise for elderly persons in our community, ii.)promote intergenerational interactions. We plan to recruit and pay 4 community seniors and 5 CSU graduate students (3 physical therapy and 2 occupational therapy) to develop the program under the mentorship of faculty.
