Brief Summary: Older adults have difficulty optimizing two tasks at once and typically experience greater interference than younger adults when dual-tasking meaningful that there is greater decline in performance of at least one task when comparing single and dual-tasking Difficulty dual-tasking may actually predict falls in community-dwelling older adults Dual-task training has been shown to improve cognitive outcomes attention memory motor outcomes balance gait and dual-task performance in older adults however most dual-task training involves simulated tasks that do not reflect functional dual tasks in the real world Greater dual-task improvements could be seen when training functionally specific tasks One way to increase task specificity is to offer real-life contextually-relevant dual-task training embedded in instrumental activities of daily living IADLs Limited evidence exists for dual-task training interventions for older adults with T2DM however there is early evidence of improvements in cognitive and motor effects with simulated dual-task training which could translate to improved dual-task performance reduced impact on everyday life and reduced fall risk Therefore the purpose of this study is to assess feasibility acceptability and preliminary efficacy of a real-life dual-task training program for older adults at risk to fall
