Abstract Introduction: Ageing is a global phenomenon. India is no exception to this demographic transition. The problems and issues of its greying population occupy the back seat. It is projected that the proportion of Indians aged 60 and older will rise from 7.5% in 2010 to 11.1% in 2025. Ignoring their needs and rights and leaving them unaddressed can pose a great threat to our social development. (Mane Abhay B, 2016). Methodology: A quantitative approach with experimental pretest, posttest design was used. Hundred samples were collected by convenience sampling technique as per inclusion criteria and divided them into experimental and control groups. Validity and reliability of tools were obtained. Nurse Led Intervention was administered to the experimental group and post test was done. After posttest Nurse led interventions were administered to control group to avoid ethical issues. Both descriptive and inferential statistics were used for data analysis. Result: Post test result indicated that the mean post test scores were significantly reduced than the mean pre- test score (p<0.001). The findings of the present study highlight the fact that the Nurse Led Intervention was highly significant to reduce psychosocial problems among institutionalized elderly. Conclusion: Study findings provide initial evidence for the feasibility, acceptability, and sustained effects of the nurse-led intervention in improving outcomes, reducing use of expensive health services, and improving psychosocial health of elderly.
