“…In the present study, the illiterate elderly had a higher mean score in self-care in all dimensions. In most studies, the share of higher self-care scores has been assigned to the elderly with higher education, 21,22 which is contrary to the results of the present study. Considering that the present study was conducted in the urban and rural areas of Miandoab, the number of illiterate older adults can affect the above results.…”

“…Additionally, in the current study, older adults with income above US$ 60 per month had higher average scores in most dimensions of self-care. The results of other studies 22,26 are also consistent with this result and confirm the effect of higher income levels on self-care in the elderly. This issue raises the need to create appropriate infrastructures for financial payments in old age to maintain the health of the elderly even more urgently.…”

“…The results of the survey by Bagheri Nasami et al also showed a positive and significant relationship between the level of physical activity and self-care. 22 The results of Floriano and Dos Santos Tavare's study also indicated that the elderly who have a higher level of physical activity performed more self-care behaviors. 23 Active presence in agricultural activities due to the necessity of the labor force to advance the job goals and achieve the product at the right time perhaps suggests the need for more self-care.…”

Methods: In this cross-sectional study, elderly people admitted to educational and medical hospitals in Zanjan in 2021 were selected by convenience sampling and 175 people over 60 years old evaluated with questionnaire including demographic information and self-care ability scale for elderly. Mean (standard deviation), frequency (percentage) and independent sample t-test were used to analyze data in SPSS 23. Results:The mean (SD) score of elderly self-care in this study was 53.86 (1.41). The results showed that self-care ability is low in most participants (68%). Women have significantly higher self-care ability than men (P=0.018). With increased age, Self-care ability decreased (P=0.0001). In illiterate and lower educated people, self-care ability is significantly lower (P=0.0001), and also rural residents have significantly less self-care ability than urban residents (P=0.0001). Elderly people who were married (P=0.0001) and had a source of income (P=0.0001) had a better level of self-care. Conclusion: Self-care ability is low in most elderly people, and self-care ability is worse in men, illiterate people, and villagers and self-care ability decreases with increasing age. It is suggested that simple programs be developed according to the age and level of literacy of the elderly.

The world’s elderly population is increasing. By 2050, 80 % of the elderly will live in middle an low income countries. So it becomes a challenge because old age becomes a problem when the elderly cannot do basic things. Self care is often used as an index to measure functional capacity in the elderly. Self care is defined as the daily tasks necessary to maintain an independent life or to survive. The decrease in activities of daily living or self care not only has a negative impact on physical well being but also on the social, emotional and mental well being of the elderly. Dependent activities of daily living have a correlation with poor quality of life. So it is necessary to ensure a better quality of life for the elderly, especially because the elderly are more susceptible to disease. The purpose of the study was to determine the relationship between self care and the quality of life of the elderly. This type of research is an analytic observational study with a cross sectional design.
