The process of creating health promotion activities in the community was analyzed by means of document examination. The results showed that the process has four periods, namely, the preparation period, consensus period, planning-implementation period, and continuation period. Based on our results, we propose a general-purpose design for community resident-centered health promotion activities in areas with different characteristics.

The purpose of this study is to elucidate the correlation between social capital and frailty of homebound community-dwelling elderly individuals without certification for long-term care. Subjects were 47 homebound and 47 age- and sex-matched, non-homebound elderly individuals evaluated from July to November, 2016. Variable parameters were physical, mental, and social frailty, Tilburg Frailty Indicator score, and social capital. The correlation between social capital and frailty in home-bounded elderlies was analyzed using the χ2 Test. Social capital was significantly correlated with mental frailty among homebound elderly individuals. In contrast, social capital was significantly correlated with all types of frailty among non-homebound elderly individuals. Among community-dwelling elderly individuals, social capital is related to prevention of comprehensive frailty and mental frailty. On the other hand, screening and intervention for prevention of long term-care are necessary for homebound elderly individuals.
