PREREQUISITES FOR RESIDENTS

Preliminary to participating in either program, residents should be treated if they have a current medical problem such as an infection or pain (see our Pain Screening Module).

A pharmacist's or physician's review of their medications is also helpful. This review may prevent or minimize such side-effects as drowsiness and confusion, which can undermine participation in exercise programs.
