Falls are a serious public health problem, especially for older adults with chronic diseases who have a higher risk of falling. For this review paper, we gathered similar research articles that looked at the effects of balance exercise programs in older adults with a variety of chronic diseases and reviewed how likely they could be used in real-world settings using a guide. We found fourteen studies that met our criteria. The most common elements that authors included in their reports were how research subjects were identified and details about the exercise program design/delivery. The least common elements were the scientific outcomes of the program, how/where the program was incorporated, and the long-term effects of the program. While these balance exercise programs for older adults with chronic diseases were successful in these individual research studies, this general area of fall research is somewhat underdeveloped. Researchers should put more consideration into surroundings where these programs could take place and study how these programs could be successful in real-world settings long-term.
