Based on spearman, the correlation between LONELINESS and LIFE SATISFACTION is significant (p<0.01, r=0.6). Also, there is significant difference between LIFE SATISFACTION and education al level (p<0.01).Conclusion: In line with this study clarified the effect of LONELINESS on LIFE SATISFACTION, we recommend having continual contact with the ELDERLY to recognize their social relationships and beliefs, family and health staff training about aging to enhance the perceptive interactions and designing some educational, therapeutic and rehabilitation programs.
