This descriptive study investigates the need for, satisfaction with, and availability of localhealthcare services for elderly individuals. The subjects included 210 individuals aged 65 yearsover, and data were analyzed using SPSS. The subjects reported the limited availability of localhealthcare services but a high level of satisfaction with and a strong need for these services. The subjects used these services mainly for their vaccination and perceived cost-effectivenessas the most important factor motivating their decision to use these services and a lack of publicityas the most important factor discouraging their use. Spouses, jobs, and health conditions showedsignificant differences in the level of satisfaction and availability, and diseases showed significantdifferences only in the need. These results suggest that local healthcare centers should provideservices that many elderly patients can use through outreach services, connections to localcommunities, and active publicity instead of expanding service types.
