Activity Professionals: Fall Prevention Training Services, LLC Announces It Has Become NCCAP Pre-Approved Provider of the Six-Step Balance System™ Fall Prevention Course

Franklin, MI, October 30, 2016 --(PR.com)-- Attention Activity Professionals – Fall Prevention Training Services, LLC., is now a pre-approved provider of continuing education to members of the National Certification Council of Activity Professionals (NCCAP). Sharon Claye, President and Owner of Fall Prevention Training Services, LLC said, “NCCAP members can now receive eight clock hours of continuing education for the Six-Step Balance System™.”

Developed by Dr. Betty Perkins-Carpenter, Rochester, NY, founder and President of Senior Fitness Inc., the Six-Step Balance System is a proven program that utilizes repetitive practice of a series of movements and simple activities, such as the “Chorus Line” and “Dancing with a Pillow,” to help older adults gain better balance and increase their level of daily physical activity.

The system is designed to reduce the probability of falls, the fear of falling and fall-related injuries. It also increases body flexibility, leg strength and overall endurance.

“Every 12 seconds, an older adult is treated in the emergency room for a fall,” said Claye. “These accidents can be dramatically reduced through learning this set of easy, yet effective, activities. Older adults need no longer live in fear of falling and can lead productive and fulfilling lives.”

“I’ve been impressed with the large variety of exercise classes offered to residents in various senior facilities across the country,” said Claye. “Now I am happy to say that since our course has been approved by NCCAP, Activity Professionals and Home Care Workers can get certified to teach this program, a proven system to reduce falls! We look forward to reaching out to this growing group of dedicated health care professionals and really make a difference in the falls epidemic.”

Completion of the eight-hour course also qualifies the student for Continuing Education Units (CEUs) with various Occupational & Physical Therapy licensure boards or professional associations as well as Continuing Education Credits (CECs) for several major personal trainer certifications.
