Abstract

 Epidemiological data about elderly population is still scarce in developing countries. With a rapidly increasing population of the elderly, data regarding the prevalence of illnesses would aid in better health planning. This study is done to find the frequency and pattern of morbidity among the elderly population in an old age home.
