Bingocize

Bingocize Bingocize is an evidence-based health promotion program that integrates exercise and health education with the fun game of bingo. http://www.bingocize.com

Over 13 million adults 65 years of age and older will fall this year resulting in over $50 billion in health care costs. The good news is effective health promotion programs can help reduce falls. The bad news, adherence and retention are typically less than 50% because older adults believe exercise programs are painful and not very much fun. To address this problem, Dr. Jason Crandall created Bin

gocize®, a socially engaging group-based program that combines exercise, health education, and the widely popular game of bingo. Our research team successfully tested Bingocize® and found over 90% of older adults were retained over the course of the 10-week program PLUS they significantly improved physical, social, and mental health. Bingocize® is delivered live by a trained lay leader either face-to-face or using Bingocize® Online. Bingocize Online is especially impactful because it can be used remotely, yet still socially engage the older adults with the facilitator and one another….an important need in today’s world. With critical endorsements from the United States Administration for Community Living and Department of Agriculture, we offer Bingocize® licenses, online training, program materials and equipment, and merchandise to nursing homes, assisted living, senior centers, and hospital trauma centers across the US and the world. In fact, the program is now in communities in over 40 different states!

EXCITING NEWS!

We are honored that Bingocize® was highlighted during the recent U.S. Senate Special Committee on Aging hearing, *"Preventing Falls, Preserving Independence: Technology, Community Programs, and Innovation in Senior Safety."* The hearing focused on evidence-based programs that help older adults reduce falls, maintain independence, and improve quality of life.

Since 2011, Bingocize® has combined exercise, health education, and social engagement to help older adults stay active and connected. Seeing programs like Bingocize® recognized in discussions at the national level reinforces the importance of evidence-based approaches to healthy

Since 2018, Bingocize® has been implemented nationally and internationally reaching thousands of older adults and people with disabilities.

Thank you to our facilitators, partners, researchers, Bingocizers who have helped make this impact possible!
