Summary

Nurses have an important place in establishing health promotion practices and policies for the elderly to help older adults manage their lifestyles. For health promotion programs to produce reliable results, health promotion programs that will improve public health must be model/theory-based. In line with all these data, although technology applications have been used more and more in recent years, studies with a high level of evidence on the effects of multi-intervention on physical activity and health improvement in the elderly are insufficient. This study will be examined the effects of home visit education, mobile application (Google Fit), group walking, and phone reminder attempts for the elderly between the ages of 60-70, based on Pender's Health Promotion Model, on physical activity and health promotion after 6 months of follow-up.
