BONITA SPRINGS, Fla.—Upscale, independent senior living community Discovery Commons At College Park will host a ten-week health and wellness education course called the Aging Mastery Program®. Developed by the National Council on Aging (NCOA), the program is designed to empower seniors 55 and older to make and maintain small, yet meaningful life changes.
Classes are planned once a week beginning April 2 through June 4, 2020, and guest lecturers will help participating seniors explore topics including longevity, physical activity, sleep, healthy eating and hydration, financial fitness, medication management, advanced planning, healthy relationships, falls prevention, and community engagement.
Basic educational materials developed from highly trusted sources, a checklist of potential next steps, and a system for tracking behaviors will be provided as takeaways from each class.
“This is a wonderful opportunity for area seniors to come together and reap the benefits of a cutting-edge wellness program,” said Crystal Werner, executive director at Discovery Commons At College Park. “And this is no one-size-fits-all solution,” she added. “This program enables the creation of a personalized playbook for healthy aging, one that’s built for sustainability and can be as unique as each individual senior.”
Discovery Commons At College Park, in Indianapolis, offers 116 Independent Senior Apartments, restaurant-quality dining and resort-style amenities. Discovery Commons is owned and operated by Florida-based Discovery Senior Living.
