The purpose of this study was to explore factors associated with the quality of life (QOL) of residents at long-term care facility. This is a cross-sectional study. Purposive sampling was used to collect data from 60 residents living in a long-term care facility in northern Taiwan. The instruments included the demographic data, Activities of Daily Living Scale, Geriatric Depression Scale Short Form, Inventory of Socially Supportive Behavior, and World Health Organization Quality of Life-BREF-Taiwan questionnaire (WHOQOL-BREF). The collected data were analyzed by using SPSS 18.0 vision. The results showed that the age and length of residence were significantly different on physical domain of quality of life; gender, primary caregiver and length of residence were significantly different on psychological and environmental domains of QOL (p＜0.05). Social support was significantly positive related to QOL. Depression was significantly negative related to QOL. Using a multiple stepwise regression analysis, the male, length of residence, social support, and depression were significantly predictors of QOL. These factors were found to explain from 10% to 49% variance of QOL. Finding of this study may facility stuffs' understanding of the factors that influenced QOL for residents. This enabled facility staff to provide difference interventions for improving QOL of the facility residents.
