Great to this major study on addressing frailty published today - once a week exercise improved physical function and reduced hospital costs, making the intervention COST-SAVING within a two-year timeframe!! @UKSBM_Fellow@ISBNPA
The REACT study is published today @TheLancetPH. Tailored group exercise has long-term positive impact on mobility of people 65 and older and it is cost-effective. Decline in mobility in later life can be prevented.
