Otago exercise program

"The OEP consists of 17 strength and balance exercises and a walking program performed thrice a week by the older adult at home.~Program Prescription The program is designed to be delivered over 6 months and includes a minimum of 5 visits. The first visit is Day 1 of Otago when performance of the functional measures is assessed, and the exercises are prescribed at the Rehabilitation Center of the National Geriatric Hospital. Then, the therapist will see the patient for 4 visits over an 8-week period (typically every other week). This is considered the initial bolus of Otago. Then, the therapist will follow the patient via phone calls every week and make a visit at three months, four months, five months, and six months to reassess the patient's training ability and compliance.~Monitoring:~Calendars can be completed each month to document any falls. A calendar or diary can be used to monitor compliance with the exercise programme"
