Abstract EN
Although self-help group for older people gains the effectiveness, the effect of a nursing intervention using a self-help group model as a guideline for self-monitoring and intervention on the health status and life satisfaction among older people still remains.
To determine the effectiveness of this nursing intervention, an experimental design using multistage sampling method was used for this study.
The self-help intervention included a single 50–70-minute session once a week for 12 weeks done, using the Life Satisfaction Inventory-A (LSI-A) questionnaire, and SF-36 shows a significant difference.
Self-help intervention could be implemented by nurses for older people in the community to improve health and well-being.
