Abstract:

“Jumlah lanjut usia atau lansia dari tahun ke tahun selalu mengalami peningkatan jumlahnya. Usia harapan hidup lansia saat ini mengalami peningkatan hingga usia 70-an tahun. Hal tersebut menunjukkan bahwa semakin panjangnya usia harapan hidup lansia, maka jumlah lansia akan mengalami peningkatan. Hal ini tentu akan berdampak pada peran sosial lansia, baik yang disebabkan karena kondisi fisik atau kesehatan, psikologis, sosial, maupun ekonomi lansia tersebut. Hal ini membuat lansia membutuhkan orang lain atau keluarga untuk memenuhi kebutuhan dasarnya. Beban keluarga dalam merawat lansia dapat menyebabkan perubahan psikologis salah satunya, yaitu ansietas.
