摘要:The elderly are the last stage in human life which is marked by some changes in typical physical conditions, psychology, and social-economic changes. The role of the family to pay attention to the elderly population is still needed. However, various advances that occur due to modernization and industrialization have led to a reduction in family attention towards the elderly population. Therefore, the issue of the elderly is still warm to be raised as an issue relating to the welfare of the elderly population. Through a qualitative approach,this study used a purposive sampling method to collect the primary data. There were 26 informants who were successfully interviewed, consisting of 5 administrators of the Budi Dharma Nursing Home and 21 elderly people who live there. The results showed that each elderly has a different perspective on feeling welfare according to their conditions at the moment. The elderly who live in the Nursing Home feel that they are prosperous because their needs are fulfilled, but they feel more prosperous when they live with their family. Generally, the elderly need more attention from their family but on the other hand, they do not want to add to the family's economic burden.
