Objects: woman dan man elderly who have age ranges 60-74, which are included to the category of inclusion and the category of exclusion. total patients are 44 persons, they are divided into two groups. Group I are 21 subjects and Group II are 23 Subjects, the group-one subject were given single task , while the group-two subject were given dual task. Methods: this research employs two groups pre and post test design. Data analysis to find out the difference of pre and post this research employs wilcoxon test. Results: There is increase walking speed to elderly effect between pre and post in group one after 2 weeks (12 times of therapy) is p = 0.000. The result of increase walking speed to elderly effect between pre and post in group two is p = 0.000 and the test increase speed to elderly with ten meters walking test between group one and group two in measn group I is 3,28 and group II is 8,13. There is an difference effect of giving single task and dual task to increase walking speed to elderly.

Abstract

Background: Falls are a major health problem among older adults and contribute to injury, functional decline, and reduced quality of life. Balance impairment is one of the primary factors associated with fall risk. Early balance screening at the community level is essential to identify older adults at risk and to inform fall prevention strategies. Objectives: This study aimed to describe balance performance and fall risk among older adults in Tohudan Village. Methods: A descriptive observational cross-sectional study was conducted involving 60 community-dwelling older adults aged ≥50 years. Balance performance was assessed using the Berg Balance Scale (BBS). Descriptive statistics were used to summarize participant characteristics and balance scores. Results: The mean age of participants was 64.97±6.50 years, with a mean BBS score of 45.95±2.46. Most participants demonstrated good to moderate balance, although several individuals scored near the fall-risk threshold. Conclusion: Older adults in Tohudan Village generally exhibit adequate balance; however, routine balance screening remains necessary to identify individuals at higher risk of falls and to support community-based preventive interventions. Keywords : Older Adults, Balance, Fall Risk, Berg Balance Scale.
