The Alpena Senior Citizens Center is implementing the Otago program, an evidence-based, 6-month, home exercise program using live video chats in combination with an online exercise app, Blue Marble.

Alpena Otago Telehealth Program

A physical therapist will use video visits to evaluate the participants and provide exercise instructions from Week 1 to Week 4. Each participant will use the Blue Marble Health in Motion app from a mobile tablet to complete the exercise guided by an avatar at their own pace after receiving the exercise instructions from the physical therapist. Participants are encouraged to exercise three days a week and 30 minutes each day using the app for 6 months. The exercise protocol based on the evidence-based Otago program includes warm up, strengthening, and balance exercise. 3.5. Research Study Design and Data Analyses:
