Do you fear falling when getting out of a chair or walking to the mailbox? Do you have trouble standing while bending over to tie your shoes? These are everyday tasks that depend on your ability to control your balance. Individuals who experience balance and dizziness problems often feel embarrassed or limited to stationary activities.

On Thursday, April 21, Randolph Hospital will conduct two free balance screening sessions from 8:30 a.m. to noon and from 1 to 5 p.m. at Randolph Hospital. The screenings will consist of a series of balance tests to assess your risk of falling.

The screening is free, but registration is required.

To register, call Randolph Hospital at (336) 633-7788 or register online at www.randolphhospital.org under the Events tab.
