Ageing has been defined as the total constellation of social, biological and psychological changes that occur in last stage of life. Ageing of the population is one of the most important demographic factors that have emerged in the 21st Century. Old age is the closing period of the life span. It is a period when people ‘move away’ from previous more desirable periods or times of ‘usefulness’. Old age homes are a boon to those who do not enjoy the support of their children or have nobody to take care of them. At least old age homes provide them shelter, food and company. But definitely, nothing can compensate living with affectionate children and grand children. The objectives of the present study are as follows: i) to understand the socio - economic conditions of inmates of old age homes in the study area, ii) to identify the basic amenities available in the old age homes in the study area and iii) to suggest measures to reduce old age homes and improve the conditions of existing homes.
