We teamed up with the Alberta Injury Prevention Centre to create a timely new resource to support Alberta seniors as they emerge from the pandemic. The pandemic has been a challenging time for everyone but has taken a particular toll on Alberta seniors. Many older adults have been living under quarantine and in isolation with reduced access to exercise, activity, socialization and interaction with peers—and, in many cases, have experienced an impact on their physical, mental and emotional health.
Based on a resource produced in the United Kingdom, the Keeping Well resource is a 32-page booklet that contains a myriad of useful information for seniors ranging from activity and exercise tips to advise on fall prevention, healthy eating, medication use, vision care, mental health and even avoiding fraud and scams. Keeping Well is essentially a practical resource to help and encourage seniors to re-engage post-pandemic as we want to support older adults to have the confidence to get back to living their best lives.
