Development of an effective sustainable nursing prevention program and system architecture
Description: In this study, a field survey involving 1,747 elderly residents was conducted. The survey results indicated that, when reviewing a nursing prevention program for the elderly, it was initially important to evaluate and manage the subject’s physical pain, and that it was necessary to improve health literacy for effectively promoting a nursing prevention program. Furthermore, daily exercise for 30 minutes per day should be introduced to maintain/improve the physical functions of the elderly. The results suggested that physical/cognitive/mental functions are maintained even after a reduction in the bone mineral density or muscle volume and falling in elderly persons who regularly do exercise.
