Does the care dependency of nursing home residents influence their health-related quality of life?-A cross-sectional study

The level of care dependency has no influence on the HRQOL from the nursing home residents' perspective apart from the domain "Sleep". High care dependency residents have a lower HRQOL in the domain "Sleep" compared to moderate and low care dependency residents. We found a significantly lower HRQOL in women compared to men in the domain "Pain".
