The statistical test utilized a t-test and multiple linear regression test. The results revealed that there was a difference in the average value of the health status of the elderly before and after the exercise programs in the intervention group (p-value = 0.001), there was a difference in the average value of the health status of the elderly between the intervention group and the control group after the exercise intervention program (p-value = 0.001), there was a relationship between the length of stay in the orphanage on the health status of the elderly. Recommendation: the resulting exercise program can be employed as complementary therapies replicated more extensively in various health care settings.
