Adaptive Physical Activity

The Howard County Office on Aging is collaborating with the VA Maryland Health Care System and other organizations, to conduct an exercise research study for individuals having trouble walking as a result of a stroke that occurred at least six months ago. Studies have shown that exercise can improve health, fitness, and walking ability among stroke survivors. If you still walk with a limp, or use a cane or walker, you may be eligible to participate in this research study. This study will compare the effects of two different exercise programs. For more information, please contact the recruitment coordinator at 410-605-7000 ext 4842.
