Physical Activity Counseling (PAC) can increase physical activity level in elderly but its effect on ADL independence is understudied. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of PAC on ADL independence of elderly with frailty syndrome. Methods : The study design was pre experimental design with one group pre post test. The population was 12 elderly living in sub district Manukan Kulon Surabaya. The independent variable was Physical Activity Counseling and the dependent variable was ADL independence. Barthel Index were used to collect data and analyzed by Wilcoxon Sign Rank test with significance of α ≤ 0,05. Result : Result showed that physical activity counseling increased ADL independence (p = 0.008). The most noticed difference was moderate ADL dependence decreased from 75% to 33% and 2 respondents from mild ADL dependence became fully independent. Increased physical activity level occurred in most all of the respondents. Discussion : Respondents with no disability are the most benefited from this study. Time to evaluate dependent variable was short, longer time needed to show better result. It is applicable for community nurses to promote physical exercise in community. Further studies should include other instruments and advance assessments needed to determine frailty and ADL independence status, so that the therapy given is more significant.
