I think hiring a fitness instructor is a great idea too. Or even a personal trainer. They could work for the activity dept or under the PT people. These people can access the stengths and weaknesses of the residents and recommend exercises that would help them. The dream team: A fitness instructor and a couple rehab aides...working together to keep our residents strong and ambulating and therefore healthier. I love the new look Patti and Kim!
