Brief Summary:
This study aims to evaluate the effect of a multidisciplinary six-minute walking group and activities on patients with dementia\'s physical activity levels, mobility, anxiety, and cognitive function. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a multidisciplinary six-minute walking group intervention-spearheaded by physiotherapists, occupational therapists, and psychologists-in enhancing physical activity, mobility, cognitive function, and functional independence among patients with dementia. A systematic review of existing evidence on the effectiveness of the existing interventions will be conducted to contextualise the findings, providing a robust benchmark for assessing the contribution of each therapeutic component.
Secondary Objectives:
1. Physiotherapy Impact: To determine the specific effects of physiotherapy on mobility, endurance, and balance in dementia patients using validated, objective measures.
2. Occupational Therapy Contribution: To evaluate the role of occupational therapy in improving functional independence and the ability to perform daily activities through targeted, task-oriented activities.
3. Psychological Impact: To assess the psychological benefits of the intervention, including reductions in anxiety and enhancements in mood and overall mental health, as a result of the psychologist-led component.
4. Dietary Support Role: To investigate the influence of integrated dietary support on physical activity levels, nutritional status, and overall health.
5. Feasibility and Scalability: To explore the practicality of integrating this multidisciplinary intervention into routine dementia care and assess its potential for broader application across similar settings.

Detailed Description:
This study aim to implement and evaluate a multidisciplinary intervention designed to enhance mobility level, cognition and physical activity levels in dementia patients within an inpatient ward. Central to this intervention is a six-minute walking group led collaboratively by physiotherapists, occupational therapists (OT), and psychologists. The program will be augmented by tailored nutritional support from dietitians and ongoing psychiatric/medical team consultation. A vital component of this initiative is a scoping review, which will synthesise existing evidence on similar interventions, providing a robust foundation for the studys design and establishing benchmarks for assessing the effectiveness of each therapeutic element. This project will be piloted within one of our dementia ward, this project has significant potential for broader implementation across other units, directly supporting our mission to enhance the \'Culture of Care\' by integrating evidence-based practices into the daily care routines of dementia patients.
