Summary

This study tests a program of balance and strength exercises, bladder training, and home safety checks in 375 women aged 70 and older who have urinary incontinence. The goal is to see if this approach reduces falls and improves bladder control compared to just giving them informational booklets. Participants will track their falls and symptoms for one year.
