Meal delivery plus exercise for homebound frail adults
This study tests whether providing meal delivery and an exercise plan can help people who are homebound and frail stay stronger. It is mainly for adults who can safely participate and follow simple instructions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You usually cannot leave home on your own (homebound).
- You are considered frail or “pre-frail” based on a frailty checklist.
- Your medical conditions are stable enough to safely take part.
- You can walk (you are able to ambulate).
- You can use your arms/hands as needed and do not already have home physical/occupational therapy ordered by a doctor.
- You can understand and follow instructions (Mini-Cog is usually 3 or higher).

This trial tests a home-based exercise program using video games (exergaming) to help older adults become less frail. A family member or friend supports you, and the program is designed to be safe and fun.
This trial tests whether a Spanish health-clinic–guided exercise program can improve frailty in people who are starting to become frail (“pre-frail”). It may help you build strength and walking ability through supervised physical activity.
This trial studies whether a structured exercise program can improve health and function in frail adults age 70 and older. It may help you build strength, energy, and mobility if you meet frailty and safety requirements.
