Taiwan is already an aging society due to the rapid increase of the aging population. To cope with this situation, it is necessary to make preparations for the care of the elderly. World Health Organization (WHO) proposed aging health strategy in recent years, and the community participation is the most important for the elderly. The courses provided by the community empowering are important to promote the healthy life of the elderly. However, at this stage, there are relatively few courses related to cognitive functions, life-style activities and aging education. It is needed to add more courses related to multi-domain. Investigators anticipate recruiting a total of 50 participants with cognitive decline. The participants will receive a total of 12 training sessions, and each session will contain 120 minutes of training. The programs contain sequential cognitive and exercise training, health lectures, and groups of daily living participation. Investigators plan to assess the participants before and after the intervention programs. Investigators expect that elders receiving training will improve on outcome measures. The results of the study will provide evidence of interventions for elderly with cognitive decline.
