National Senior Health and Fitness Day is an annual event in the United States aimed at promoting the importance of regular physical activity and wellness for older adults. It typically takes place on the last Wednesday of May, bringing together thousands of older adults for various health and fitness activities. The day is marked by events such as exercise classes, health screenings, and wellness workshops, organized by local agencies, health clubs, hospitals, and senior centers. The goal is to encourage seniors to maintain a healthy lifestyle, improve their physical and mental well-being, and foster social engagement.
Adult Alternative Home Care had the opportunity to participate in the National Senior Health & Fitness Day Fair at our local YMCA.
YMCA Five Points Wellness Center.
Our table engaged the seniors in a game of Health Jeopardy. Winners took away some goodie bags with healthy treats and educational material.
