The Otago Programme, Adapted for BDA-Layout Homes
The Otago Home Exercise Programme was developed by the University of Otago (New Zealand) and is the most evidence-based fall-prevention protocol worldwide. It combines five lower-limb strengthening exercises (knee extensor, knee flexor, hip abductor, ankle dorsiflexor, ankle plantar-flexor with graded resistance), twelve balance-retraining drills (single-leg stance, tandem walking, sit-to-stand endurance, heel-toe standing, backwards walking), and a walking programme (30 minutes ×3/week). Delivered ×3/week for 8-12 weeks by a licensed physiotherapist, then home-maintenance.
Every Pro Physiotherapy Otago programme starts with a Timed-Up-and-Go (TUG) test (Barry et al. BMC Geriatrics 2014 — TUG > 13.5 s predicts high fall risk), single-leg-stance timing, Berg Balance Scale, five-times-sit-to-stand, and a room-by-room home-safety audit tailored to the BDA-layout typology — checking rugs, grab-bar placement, bathroom slip-mats, staircase lighting, and footwear. Fortnightly reassessment tracks TUG improvement (goal: 3-5 s reduction across 8 weeks).
