Abstract
People are much healthier today and lead more productive lives than ever before. This is due to social and economic progress, in particular public health measures for more effective prevention and control of disease. However, the shift towards aging also causes an increase in the number of those in need of care and care. Considering the progress and growth of nursing in the last decade, the aim of this research is to gain insight into the lifestyle in nursing homes, the quality of aging and the factors that influence satisfaction / dissatisfaction with the quality of life in such institutions. Respondents (N = 100) are very satisfied with the staff in the home. They like their treatment of the elderly and their kindness and willingness to take their comments into account. Investing in continuing education enables the growth of nursing, which is a prerequisite for increasing the quality of life and health care of the elderly placed in nursing homes.
