Abstract

This study was planned and conducted to assess the quality of life (QOL) as perceived by 140 selected elderly people living in 3 public nursing homes in Amman, Jordan. Factors that may influence quality of life among the residents were analyzed, and the relationship between quality of life and certain demographics in the nursing homes was determined.

The data were collected through administration of a questionnaire during face-to-face interviews in the residents’ settings. Consent from each resident was sought and obtained.

The findings indicated that the quality of life is determined by age, gender, marital status, level of education, and length of stay in the nursing home. Also, by the quality of the four domains: physical, psychological, social relationships, and environment.
