Abstract
The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of a visiting exercise program for physical activity promotion on physical (grip strength, static balance) and psychological (depression, perceived health status) function of frail elderly patients receiving home visiting service care. Subjects included a total of 49 patients; 24 in the control group and 25 in the experimental group. The visiting exercise program was carried out 16 times for 8 weeks. The collected data were analyzed by ${\chi}^2-test$ and t-test using SPSS/WIN 21.0 program. There was a significant improvement in the left grip strength (t=2.19, p<.000), right grip strength (t=5.07, p=.032), static balance (t=3.98, p=.050), and depression (t=-8.83, p=.009) in the experimental group compared with the control group. The visiting exercise program for physical activity promotion was effective on physical and psychological functions for frail elderly patients receiving home visiting service care. Further research is needed in a longitudinal study incorporating various centers to examine the maintenance of such effects.
