Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Exercise has been rightly termed the 'fountain of youth' for older adults. Exercise is associated with lower risks of developing many chronic conditions (cardiac disease, diabetes mellitus, osteoporosis) as well as being a key treatment modality for common geriatric problems (osteoarthritis, falls, incontinence, sleep issues, frailty). Exercise, or regularly planned physical activity, is also associated with higher functional levels and well-being, which many older adults consider critical for a high quality of life. Indeed, many physiologic changes formerly attributed to senescence appear due to disuse and thus less inevitable than assumed. The dictum of 'use it or lose it' holds true, for people 70 years and older.This user-friendly text provides practical strategies for health care professionals who work with or advise older adults to create exercise prescriptions suitable for specific settings and medical conditions. Expanded and revised,the second edition translates new findings in exercise research for the elderly for busy practitioners, trainees, students and administrators and provides practical strategies that can be implemented immediately in the common settings in which practitioners care for adults. It includes key points and case examples which showcase the strong evidence supporting exercise by older adults as a key to enhance health, prevent serious outcomes, such as hospitalization and functional loss, and as part of the treatment plan for diseases that are common in older adults.Strategies and exercises are discussed for specific care settings and illustrated via video examples to ensure readers can immediately apply described techniques.Written by experts in the field, Exercise for Aging Adultsis a valuable guide to maintaining quality of life and functional independence from frail to healthy aging adultsfor physicians, residents in training, medical students, physical therapists, gerontology advance practice nurse practitioners, assisted living facility administrators, directors of recreation, and long-term care directors.…
