Abstract
The quality of life in older adults was significantly affected due to the risk of contagion and social isolation, so the objective of the research is to determine the quality of life during the COVID-19 pandemic in older adults in a province in southern Lima. It is a quantitative, descriptive and cross-sectional study, with a total population of 120 older adults who answered a questionnaire of sociodemographic aspects and the quality of life instrument. In its results, 83 % (n=100) of the older adults have a low quality of life, 10 % (n=12) have a medium quality of life and 7 % (n=8) have a high quality of life. In conclusion, strategies should be considered according to the psychosocial and health support needs of this vulnerable population.
