Summary

This study looks at whether exercise sessions—either in person or through video calls—can improve frailty, mental health, and physical function in adults aged 65 and older living in rural areas. About 240 participants will be split into two groups: one does multicomponent exercise for 12 weeks in person, then continues with video-assisted sessions for nine months; the other gets usual care plus health talks. The goal is to see if these programs help seniors stay active and independent.
