| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It is important for the elders to maintain healthy life expectancy and spend in independence. The elderly, so-called "non-healthy and non-nursing care" elderly, have a high risk to migrate to requiring long-term care state. Those elders tend to be overlooked between policy, friends and community. We have conducted the exercise classroom at home. This is the program to carry out the exercises flexibility and strength training in accordance with the individual physical strength. However, this program has the following problems. 1. The high cost for an elderly. 2. Difficulty of home delivery of instructor in the sparsely populated areas. 3. Weakness of motivation to continue. To solve these problems, we performed exercise using Skype. We can use the communication by Skype. It is possible to provide an exercise instruction at a low cost to people who live in remote areas.
