Correlations between quantitative variables were analyzed using Spearman correlation coefficient. a significance level of α=0.05 \(p < 0.05\) was used in the analysis. RESULTS Higher performance in general ability to perform activities of daily living was presented by subjects living in the family home. Scores on the GARS and subscales ADL and IADL were significantly lower in the group of subjects living in the family home, which indicates greater functional freedom in performing general, simple and complex activities of daily living in this group \(p<0.001\). Statistical analysis showed a statistically significant relationship between the level of functional fitness and self\-rated health status \(p<0.001\). Respondents with higher level of functional ability presented higher self\-assessment of health status. Individuals living in the family home were significantly more likely to rate their health status higher than the nursing home residents \(p˂0.001, r˃0\). Those with higher levels of functional ability in both study groups were statistically significantly more likely to be free of depressive symptoms \(p˂0.001, r˃0\). Respondents living in the family home, who showed higher levels of functional ability in general, simple and complex activities of daily living, were statistically significantly more likely to receive higher levels of social support than the nur"]
