The Geriatric Activation Program (GAPP) Home version

"The rehabilitation at home intervention consists of three 45 minutes session per week (total of 18 sessions) with a different focus for each session. The therapy is goal-oriented and includes functional exercises in the home where possible (e.g. transfers such as getting out of bed, walking to the toilet etc.). There are three sessions per week: 1 for training strength, 1 for training balance and 1 for speed, coordination and endurance. Each session will start with gait rehabilitation as a warming-up.~For each session, a set of exercises with varying levels of difficulty is available. As rehabilitation needs are diverse, the therapist is expected to choose the most appropriate exercise and the difficulty level of the exercise for the individual older person. This also includes scaling the exercises to the individual progression of the older person."
