Simple random sampling and data collection tools were the Keys Social Health Questionnaire. Data analysis was performed at descriptive and inferential levels using SPSS software. The significance level was considered p <0.05.Results: Participants' mean age was about 62.83± 2.23 years, and the highest frequency of education level was related to diploma and post-diploma education.
