Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Hypothesis: After 12 weeks, there will be a statistically significant decrease in the fall risk category for individuals in a home-based multiplanar balance training and educational program with electronic assistance as compared to no change in the fall risk category for individuals in an educational control group with electronic assistance Hypothesis: To determine if an individual's fear of falling is lower following a home-based multiplanar balance training and educational program, with electronic assistance as compared to no change in fear of falling following an educational control group with electronic assistance post-intervention.
Hypothesis: An individual's quality of life will improve following a home-based multiplanar balance training and educational program, with electronic assistance as compared to no change in the quality of life following an educational control group with electronic assistance post-intervention.
Hypothesis: Adherence and feasibility will be greater with a home-based multiplanar balance training program, with electronic assistance as compared to a control group with electronic assistance.
Hypothesis: There will be a statistically significant inverse relationship between an individual's fear of falling and their fall risk category.
