Abstrakt		We expect a significant growth in the number of residents age 65 and over by the year 2000 in Slovenia. In 1991 this group composed 10.9 percent of the population in this age group. Predictions estimate that this number will rise to 15.7 percent in the year 2021. Therefore, as in Western Europe, we are asking ourselves how to achieve the healthiest possible aging for an individual and for the population as a whole. Research shows that the answer to the question regarding determination of health in the older individual is multilayered and connected to the personal life history of each individual as a whole involving biological health, mental health, social health, financial and economical health, historical factors and the immediate and distant environments. This article mentions the more important factors in these areas, which influence healthy aging and old age. Individual factors interact and their synergism influences the final results: the presence or absence of health of the elderly person.
