dc.description.abstractAbstract: The aim of this research is to evaluate the nutritional status of elderly people residing in a nursing home and to examine the relationship of the results with chronic diseases. The sampling of the descriptive and cross-sectional research consists of 65 nursing home residents. The data of the research were collected through the Personal Information Form, Mini Nutritional Assessment Test (MNA), Hand Grip Strength Test, Activities of Daily Living Scale and Geriatric Depression Scale. In the analysis of the data, p<0.05 value was accepted as statistically significant. The mean MNA score of the participants was calculated as 22.24±4.8; malnutrition was found in 15.4% and malnutrition risk was detected in 41.5%. There was a statistically significant positive relationship between the MNA scores and hand grip strengths of the participants (r=0.299, p<0.05). Low hand grip strength was discovered in 52.3% of the participants. There was no significant difference among the distribution of MNA scores according to the chronic diseases of the participants (p>0.05). MNA scores of the participants who had depression were found to be significantly low (p<0.05). As the dependency level in the activities of daily living increased, hand grip strength (r=-362, p?0.01) and MNA scores (r=-596, p?0.01) decreased significantly.en_US
