Optimizing Nutrition and Mobility in Older Adults

This peer-reviewed clinical trial, published in JAMDA, investigated the combined effects of sit-to-stand (STS) exercises and protein-rich oral nutritional supplementation (ONS) in nursing home residents aged 75+. Conducted across eight nursing homes, the study evaluated physical function, nutritional status, body composition, quality of life, and healthcare resource use over 12 weeks. While the overall intervention did not significantly improve mobility measures, findings showed that residents with high adherence to both STS and ONS achieved gains in fat-free mass, weight stability, and maintenance of functional performance.

Key Benefits for Healthcare Professionals

This resource provides practical, evidence-based insights to help you:

  • Recognize the role of combined nutrition and functional exercise in addressing sarcopenia and frailty

  • Understand how ONS supports protein intake and weight maintenance in frail older adults

  • Apply strategies to integrate simple functional exercises like STS into daily care routines

  • Interpret subgroup analyses showing improved outcomes in residents with high adherence

  • Explore clinical implications for tailoring interventions to maximize benefits in long-term care
