Best Frailty Care – The Story of Ans

Come with us to the Netherlands to meet Ans! A healthy and energetic 91 year-old who lives independently at home. 

Watch the video to discover how the Best Frailty Care (TOM) program empowered Ans and 800 seniors like her.

Together with Nutricia, Danone and other local actors, we co-created this program to bring older people together for four months to learn about healthy diets and for exercise classes designed to prevent and reduce the risk of falls with the goal of fostering a healthier and autonomous lifestyle!

“I read an article about the Best Frailty Care (TOM) program in a local newspaper. I quickly registered for it, and I was happy to join. The group of seniors I joined was very nice to each other. Thanks to the program I learned how to better keep my balance, and I also changed a few things in my diet. I am making sure I eat enough protein a day. The program was a lot of fun! It made me a little bit more confident and I’m still reaping the benefits. I am happy to be independent.”
