Hypertension becomes a problem in old age, more than 50% of people with hypertension are
over 60 years old. The application of nursing theory in the provision of nursing care needs to
be continuously developed. One of the theories of nursing that can be applied to the elderly
who have hypertension is the Levine conservation model. Nursing actions are based on four
principles: energy conservation, conservation of structural integrity, conservation of personal
integrity and conservation of social integrity. The purpose of this study was to identify the
effect of Levine's conceptual model-based nursing interventions on the elderly.The design of
this study used quasy experiments with pre and post control groups with a large sample of 20
respondents in each group. The sampling technique used is consecutive sampling with
independent variables, namely Levine model-based nursing interventions (benson relaxation
techniqued, deep breath relaxation techniqued, progressive muscle relaxation technique and
health education), Dependent variable in this study were sleep disorders, pain, anxiety and
family support. The research instruments used are sleep quality scale (SQS), Numeric rating
scale, Hamilton anxiety rating scale and family support scale. The research was carried out
at the Budi Sejahtera Banjarbaru Elderly Social Protection and Rehabilitation Institution
(PPRSLU). The statistical test used in this study was man whitney test. The test results found
that Levine-based interventions had an effect on sleep disorders (p=0.016), but had no effect
on pain (p=0.67), anxiety (p=1.00), family support (p=0.63). In elderly with hypertension,
nurses need to help the elderly so that the problem of hypertension is resolved and able to
fight disability. Levine-based interventions can be applied for the recovery of symptoms of
hypertension.
