Brandon Wilde, a leading senior living community in Evans, announces the launch of its new Better Balance Program, powered by Zibrio, an award-winning balance assessment and engagement platform proven to significantly reduce falls and improve confidence and quality of life for older adults.

Falls are among the most serious and frequent health risks facing older adults, often leading to injury, loss of independence, hospitalization, and increased healthcare costs. Recognizing this urgent need, Brandon Wilde has adopted Zibrio’s Programming with a Purpose approach — a simple, proactive, data-driven model that integrates wellness, fitness, and life-enrichment teams around a shared goal: keeping residents safer, stronger, and more confident on their feet.

At the heart of the program is Zibrio’s award-winning Stability Scale, which uses advanced balance measurement technology to identify fall risk early and guide personalized interventions. The program coordinates proactive care across the community’s wellness, exercise, and activity departments, ensuring residents receive consistent support through every aspect of daily life. The focus is on normalizing Zibrio’s award-winning Stability Scale, which uses advanced balance measurement technology to identify fall risk early and guide personalized interventions. The program coordinates proactive care across the community’s wellness, exercise, and activity departments, ensuring residents receive consistent measuring of balance across the entire community, resulting in inclusivity and empowerment of all residents to improve balance at any age and from any stage.
