They are happy and feel fortunate to have achieved a place in that residence. Life at home, as they see and like to call the residence has given them peace, tranquility and welfare. In a second analysis of the result can be seen unambiguously in feelings of wellbeing and can explain that to live well on what it is: resignation is what helps them be well. The face to face interview and observation were the tools of research.
