According to United Nations the total number of elderly people in the world will reach at 1.2 billion by the year 2025, which indicates that by this time 15% of the total populations will reach 60 years or more. Thus the number of elderly people is increasing day by day at a very alarming rate. In this background, it played a motivational sense to the researcher in conducting a study on health status of selected Filipino elderly towards the development of Quality of Life Model for Nursing Geriatrics. Specifically, the proponent sought answers to the following inquiries: What is the profile of the participants in terms of their demographics variables that includes age, civil status, highest educational attainment, personal monthly income, health maintenance cost and their human dimensions such as physical, emotional, social and spiritual? Do their dimensions differ significantly when grouped according to their profile variables? And based on the findings, what health program can be proposed for senior citizens? Respondents to this research were selected Filipino Elderly. This study is a descriptive type of research that presents the health status of selected Filipino Elderly.
