How often do we multitask and even think it’s a plus? Well contrary to popular thinking, new research shows that multitasking should be avoided. It actually slows you down and can even trip you up. Please join Dr. Janson for a discussion and demonstration of the effects of multitasking on your balance and risk of falling and what you can do about it. Please have a small ball or other object that you can easily pass from hand to hand for the activities.
Who: Dr. Sophia Janson, PT, GCS
