Key findings of the multi-domain intervention evaluation.
| Key success factors | Improvement factors |
|---|---|
|
Increased out-reach to older adults through Senior Centres Support from centre managers enabled smooth implementation of programme Availability and willingness of centres to incorporate intervention into their programme schedule Willingness of participants to be randomised Programme fully implemented by three partner enterprises in the community Physical-cognitive dual-task exercises of moderate intensity were tolerated and enjoyed by participants with benefits to physical performance Small group mental activities which simulate daily living activities enjoyed by participants |
Reaching out to target older adults (socially isolated, lesser engaged) Temporal considerations Adequate time for CCT factoring in frequent breaks and learning curves Increasing sessions on small group activities (non-technology related) Longer intervention period i.e. > 24 weeks Addressing technology confidence and knowledge Involvement of community partners in earlier stages of planning |
