The article presents the results of the development of the biopsychosocial model of active care for elderly and aged patients. An expert analysis of biological and psychosocial determinants of the quality of life of the elderly and aged was taken, and the results of the implementation of the proposed model of qualified care for the elderly and aged was assessed. It was pointed that the model of active biopsychosocial care for the geriatric contingent of patients at home, aimed at improving the quality of life, consists of biological modification of internal and external environments of the patient; mainly due to maintenance activity by active physiotherapy and cognitive exercises, minimizing passive care to achieve the highest possible level of independent functioning; and not just providing care to meet basic needs. Introduction of the biopsychosocial model of active care of the contingent of patients at home has been highly efficient in improving the tidiness of patients by 23,6%, increasing Bartela’s index values by 21,5 % and improving the quality of life by 24,7%.
