Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to identify the effects of the BeHaS exercise program, developed by Jong Im Kim (2006), consisting of exercise, education and cognitive support on muscle strength and flexibility in elders who live in elderly facilities. Method: This study was designed using one group pretest-posttest experimental design, 19 elders, the subjects of the group participated in the BeHaS exercise program. The BeHaS exercise program was provided for 60-80 minutes per session once a week for 8 weeks. Data was collected by research assistants using structured interview and measurement tool, from January, 2011 to March, 2011. Data were analyzed using the SPSS Win 17.0, general characteristics were analyzed with real number and percentage, muscle strength and flexibility were analyzed with Mean and SDs. Results: There were significant increase pre and post test for the left shoulder flexibility (p=.000) and waist flexibility (p=.030). Conclusion: In conclusion, this study confirms that BeHaS exercise program played a useful role in partial improving flexibility in the Institutionalized Elders.
