Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Supervised Exercise Therapy (SET) Plus Balance ExercisesExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Intervention meetings surrounding supervised exercise therapy (SET) with the addition of the adapted Otago Exercise Program (OEP) will occur individually with participants in a 1:1 format once per week for 30 minutes over 8 weeks. Additionally, participants will be encouraged to practice exercises at home at least 2 additional days between intervention meetings using visual handouts (up to 7 times/week total, approximately 140 minutes/week).
