The 6-month intervention comprised four group sessions and six telephone calls conducted by professional nurses, sport scientists, and nutritionists. This educational program focused on guidelines for physical activity, nutritional habits, cognition, and psychosocial well-being. Functional capacity was assessed using questionnaires for basic (Barthel Index) and instrumental (Lawton and Brody Scale) activities of daily living. All outcome measures were evaluated at baseline, immediately after the intervention (6-month), and six months after the intervention as a follow-up (12-month). Differences in functional capacity (Barthel Index and Lawton and Brody Scale scores) across the three time points were analyzed using Friedman's ANOVA, with Wilcoxon signed-rank test for pairwise comparisons.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Results&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div&gt;At both 6-month and 12-month assessments, the control group showed a statistically significant decline in basic and instrumental activities of daily living compared to the intervention group, which maintained similar levels, preventing this age-related decline.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Conclusions&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;div&gt;The educational intervention, designed for easy implementation within healthcare systems, especially for nurses, successfully maintained levels of functional capacity in basic and instrumental activities of daily living, while the control group experienced a decline in functional capacity during the 12-month follow-up.

Surgical (<em>aOR</em> = 0.655, <em>95</em> <em>% CI:</em> 0.482–0.889) and orthopedic wards (<em>aOR</em> = 0.649, <em>95</em> <em>% CI:</em> 0.449–0.939) exhibited lower risks of serious fall injuries than internal medicine wards. The period from 8:00 to 15:59 was associated with a higher risk of serious fall injuries compared to the period from 0:00 to 7:59 (<em>aOR</em> = 1.416, <em>95</em> <em>% CI:</em> 1.171–1.713). Compared to lying, standing (<em>aOR</em> = 2.594, <em>95</em> <em>% CI:</em> 1.733–3.883), getting in/out of bed (<em>aOR</em> = 1.403, <em>95</em> <em>% CI:</em> 1.009–1.951), walking or rehabilitating (<em>aOR</em> = 3.039, <em>95</em> <em>% CI:</em> 2.194–4.208), toileting (<em>aOR</em> = 1.411, <em>95</em> <em>% CI:</em> 1.038–1.917), and showering (<em>aOR</em> = 2.170, <em>95</em> <em>% CI:</em> 1.391–3.385) were associated with an increased risk of serious fall injuries.</div></div><div><h3>Conclusions</h3><div>Fall-related injuries and serious fall injuries are highly prevalent among older inpatients.
