Summary

This study compares a multicomponent exercise program (combining strength, balance, and walking exercises) with a simple stretching and relaxation program in 60 nursing home residents who have frailty or dementia. The goal is to see if the exercise program improves physical function, thinking skills, and reduces the risk of falls. Participants must be able to walk and stand with or without help.
