Home Exercise Program With Technology and Caregiver Support for Older Adults
This study tests whether using motion-sensing exercise games at home, guided by a family member or friend, can help older adults who are becoming frail stay more active and stronger. The program aims to make exercise fun and easier to do with support from someone you trust.
