The health and well-being of older adults are major concerns in improving the quality of life of the elderly population. The visit of the Elderly Posyandu is one of the programs designed to meet the health and social needs of older adults at the community level. Older adults' knowledge and attitudes towards using Posyandu Lansia services have an important role in determining their level of participation in the program.

A quantitative research method with a cross-sectional approach was used in this study. Respondents were selected based on purposive sampling, with as many as 86 respondents. The data were analyzed using the Fisher exact test. Fisher's exact statistical test results are known to be knowledge variables p value = 0.003, attitude is known p value = 0.002, meaning there is a correlation between knowledge and attitude towards the use of elderly posyandu visits. It can be concluded that efforts to improve the knowledge and attitudes of older adults towards the Posyandu Lansia program need to be increased through various education and health promotion strategies. Involving families, communities, and related parties in supporting the participation of older adults is also important.

According to the formula found by Isaac and Micheal, the population in this study amounted to 402 respondents, so a sample of 162 respondents was obtained. The sampling technique was Probability Sampling with a proportional random sampling type. Results: Based on the results of the cross-tabulation that has been carried out between caring behaviour and patient satisfaction using the Fisher Exact test statistical test, the result is in the form of a p-value of 0.001 with a significant level of <0.05 and with this value (0.001) means less than the value a (0.05).
