Abstract
The SENIOR ("Sample of Elderly Nursing homes Individuals: an Observational Research") study is a prospective follow-up of a cohort of more than 600 people living in nursing homes in Belgium. One of the objectives of this study is to investigate ways of managing frailty in order to prevent the occurrence of adverse health events. Thanks to the numerous demographic, clinical and anamnestic data collected annually, this study has shown the importance of promoting qualitative physical activity in nursing homes in order to improve the quality of life of residents. Specifically, our research showed the positive effect of physical activity programmes on weekly energy expenditure and improvement of functional abilities, motivation to engage in physical activity and quality of life. Furthermore, the possibilities to improve the motivational context of group physical activity sessions and the feasibility of innovative physical activity programmes, based on the development of a giant play mat or the organisation of competitions in nursing homes, were highlighted.
