Abstract
A considerable amount of international research into Quality of Life
(QOL) seeks to explain the determinants of #health and well-being as
we age. Many older adults in Bhutan continue to live traditionally in
socially integrated Buddhist communities. Popular understanding of
health
and QOL to some extent could be different from western populations. This
qualitative study employed in-depth interviews with 30 older adults
(aged 60 to 83 years). Content #analysis generated key themes. Finding
indicated most older participants experience good QOL. Close family
integration and interpersonal harmony, respect for the older people,
spirituality, #chronichealth conditions and adverse childhood
experiences,
lack of education, insufficient income, and changes in the sources of
practical help in the community influenced QOL.
