Brief summary: An epidemic of pneumonia , which is thought to have developed due to a new coronavirus, was detected in Wuhan, Hubei Province of the People's Republic of China, and this epidemic could not be brought under control, leading to other provinces of China in a short time and then to a pandemic. It has spread all over the world including the European continent. Causative Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) and the disease caused by the new virus (novel) coronavirus-2019 (2019-nCoV) and subsequently the COVID-19. After the virus was officially detected in our country on 11 March 2020, the number of cases increased rapidly and the virus was isolated in 670 patients within 10 days. The group that is most affected by the outbreak and has the highest mortality rate is the elderly with known cardiovascular diseases. It is important to ensure the social isolation of elderly patients and to minimize all hospital applications as much as possible if they do not have life-threatening urgent problems. To this end, Turkey on 21 March 2020, 65 years of age and older people and patients with chronic curfew was implemented.

Individuals moving away from social life are dealing with their body more, their level of depression and anxiety increase, and their physical functions decrease. The therapy service is offered to people who cannot travel with telerehabilitation, which is defined as the transmission of rehabilitation service to long distances by using electronic information and communication technology.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of telerehabilitation exercises given to elderly individuals on sleep quality, quality of life and balance within the scope of geriatric rehabilitation.
