Also, the results of the Chi-square test showed that the differences between the two groups of the participants regarding health care needs (P<0.01), educational (P<0.001), recreation (P<0.001) and transportation (P<0.01) are significant. But there were no significant differences between rural and urban elderly in the case of nutritional needs (t=0.072, P=0.94), personal care (P=0.68), and housing (P=0.71).Conclusion: According to the findings, designing educational programs for urban elders would be effective in meeting their spiritual needs. On the other hand, establishing recreational facilities, meeting their health needs and increasing the level of literacy in rural elderly are essential to prevent their social isolation.
