A Matter of Balance Virtual Training
Many older adults experience concerns about falling and restrict their activities. A MATTER OF BALANCE-VIRTUAL has been adapted from the A Matter of Balance (in-person) program and is offered on-line using Zoom. This is an award winning nine-session program designed to manage falls and increase activity levels.
The Phoenixville Senior Center will be holding these classes in-person in early 2023, but we encourage you to register for the virtual program hosted by Main Line Health.
Important Information About Monkeypox
The Chester County Health Department has activated its Monkeypox Health Operations Center (HOC). With the activation of our HOC, we are committing more resources to the overall outbreak response and are focused on several concurrent priorities.
At this time, the threat of Monkeypox remains low and that while this is a rare viral disease, unlike COVID-19, it is not a new disease. Testing for Monkeypox, vaccine to prevent or lessen disease severity, and antiviral treatment to help manage the systems are already available.
For more information, please refer to the Chester County Health Department’s Monkeypox website here.
