Silicon Valley Healthy Aging Partnership
Evidence Based Health Promotion
is the process of planning, implementing, and evaluating programs adapted from trusted models or interventions to address health issues.
Evidence Based Health Promotion Programs provide demonstrated clear benefits through rigorous research, minimal risk to participants, and clear physiological, psychological, and social benefits to program participants.
​
Evidence-based programs provide measurable outcomes in senior health and fitness such as:
​
-
decreases in falls
-
increases in functional fitness for seniors
-
increase in positive self-perception
-
increases in self efficacy
-
other positive health benefits
-
an increase in adherence to best practices
Completion of an evidence-based program from a certified trainer or coach can help members of our older adult community feel empowered to manage their own health, stay active and lead more fulfilling lives.
