AnnotationThis mini-review aims to contribute to the limited research that answers the question, What interventions by nurses are effective in maintaining independence in the cognitively intact older care home population? While it is evident that the introduction of exercise in care homes could have positive benefits for the residents, the studies included in this review were not without limitations. (RH).
