Does provision of computerised cognitive training for an extended period of time in older hospitalised patients help in improving their frailty status?

Participants in the intervention group will receive cognitive training, which will be administered by the use of study iPADs loaded with Flinders Assistant for Memory Enhancement (FAME) application. FAME is a tablet based platform used to provide assistive mobile tools and deliver brain training and physical activity interventions to older adults wishing to counteract mild memory loss. Daily training sessions will be provided by a trained research assistant during hospital admission, until participants are proficient to use this program. Thereafter, participants will be instructed to continue practicing 'brain training' for at least one hour per day for 12 weeks in their own homes. Participants will receive fortnightly telephone calls from the research assistant to ensure compliance with the intervention and to address any technical issues arising during the study period.
