Table 7.

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
