abstract="Assertive screening, as opposed to defensive screening, is done for the participant's benefit not the provider's protection. It is used to identify and manage chronic health conditions and functional limitation. It is neither risk averse, nor protective but an &quot;enabling, pre-exercise medical review that will facilitate safe and effective recreational participation&quot;. Such screening asserts the right of older and functionally very limited people to participate in exercise programmes. <p>Language: en</p>",
