Abstract
1. Independence, cohesion, and functional health are related to well-being in elderly nursing home residents. 2. Nursing home residents may not criticize staff due to fear of a withdrawal of support. 3. Social support provided by visitors outside the nursing home may decrease the need for social support from sources inside the nursing home.
