Care Home Week 18: Moving More Often (CAPA)

Care Home Week 18: Moving More Often (CAPA)

One of the myths about care homes is that once you start living there you no longer exercise or move around. If anything can dispel this myth it is the CAPA programme!

Moving More Often

The new CAPA ‘Moving More Often’ resource is an easy to read guide for older people experiencing care in their own homes to enable them to move more every day.  The resource was produced to enable care at home staff to support those they care for to move more regularly and to improve their health and wellbeing. It can also be used by care home staff to support those they care for. 

The resource can be downloaded at http://www.capa.scot/?page_id=962  or for a free copy call 0345 600 9527 or email [email protected]
