Today there are 23 certified nursing facilities (CNF) and eight universities partnering to implement Bingocize®. Northern and Eastern Kentucky Universities and five more CNF will be added with the expansion. That brings the total to 28 CNF and 10 universities!
Bingocize® has some extremely exciting news! We just received an additional $126,000 from the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services to expand our Kentucky Civil Money Penalty (CMP) Grant project. That’s a total of over $900,000 so far.
#Bingocize® has been featured in the El Kentubano Magazine this month! El Kentubano is a monthly publication, entirely in Spanish and distributed free of charge in places where there is a large Hispanic audience.

DYK that 2.8 million adults over the age of 65 go to ER because of falls each year? (CDC Data) A significant reason for these falls is a lack of lower body strength in older adults. @WKUEXS is looking to improve this issue with the #bingocize program. #SEACSM18
