The focus of 4 of the articles is older people with multimorbidity in a nursing home
or hospital setting, and the other 2 include older people living in their own homes
with frailty or pre frailty, and older people with subjective memory complaints (who
were not frail). They have a distinctly international flavor with groups from Japan,
Finland, Germany, Spain, and the United States.To read this article in full you will need to make a payment
