The subjects were selected by census sampling method. The data were collected using "Personal Resource Questionnaire (PRQ 85-PART 2) and were analyzed by SPSS, version 14.Results: Findings confirm that overall patients had a high degree of perceived SOCIAL SUPPORT. Statisticall significant relationship was found between perceived SOCIAL SUPPORT and gender, material status, physical function, economic status, and educational level, but, there was no statistical significant correlation between perceived SOCIAL SUPPORT and other variable.Conclusion: Association between perceived SOCIAL SUPPORT and some demographic variables indicates the need for nurses to consider support resources of these patients.
