Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Recognizing the threat falls pose to health and well-being and the dearth of fall prevention programs, the purpose of this study to perform a structured process evaluation and examine the feasibility and efficacy of a community-based intervention specifically designed to reduce fall incidence among wheelchair and scooter users with MS. Secondary aims of the intervention are to improve functional mobility skills associated with fall risk (e.g. transfer and wheelchair skills, balance), increase knowledge of fall risk factors, decrease fear of falling and enhance quality of life and community participation.
