MOVE Program Information
I cannot provide specific information about a "MOVE program" within your particular health system, as the evidence provided does not contain details about any health system-specific MOVE program implementation.
What the Evidence Shows About MOVE-Related Programs
The research literature describes several distinct mobility and physical activity programs using "MOVE" terminology, but none appear to be a standardized health system-wide program:
MOVE UP (Mobility and Vitality Lifestyle Program)
- A community-based weight management and mobility intervention for older adults with obesity 1
- Delivered by trained community health workers in underserved areas 1
- 13-month program focused on healthy aging, weight management, and preventing mobility disability 1
- Targets adults ≥65 years with obesity to improve physical function, weight, and health outcomes 1
- Implemented in community centers, YMCAs, senior centers, and libraries 1
MoveStrong Program
- An 8-week program for older adults with pre-frailty and frailty 2
- Includes 16 exercise physiologist-led group sessions plus 2 dietitian-led nutrition sessions 2
- Focuses on balance, functional strength training, and adequate protein intake 2
- Demonstrated improvements in grip strength, sit-to-stand function, and dynamic balance 2
MOVE MS Program
- A group exercise program specifically for individuals with multiple sclerosis 3
- Weekly sessions based on Social Cognitive Theory 3
- Incorporates peer instruction, behavior change education, and multiple exercise modalities 3
General Evidence on Mobility Programs
Digital health interventions promoting physical activity improve both physical activity levels and physical function across various chronic conditions 4. These programs demonstrate:
- Increased objectively measured physical activity (SMD 0.29,95% CI 0.21-0.37) 4
- Improved physical function (SMD 0.36,95% CI 0.12-0.59) 4
- Benefits for depression, anxiety, and health-related quality of life during active intervention 4
- Higher risk of nonserious adverse events (musculoskeletal soreness/pain) but no increased serious adverse events 4
To Obtain Specific Information
Contact your health system's administration, rehabilitation services, or wellness department directly to determine if they have implemented a MOVE program and obtain details about eligibility criteria, referral processes, and program components specific to your institution.
