Abstract
To evaluate the effectiveness of an intervention combining Integrative Nursing and Omaha System on physical, mental, social, spiritual health of older women living with high level of loneliness.

A randomised controlled trial was conducted with 69 older women feeling loneliness (INOSEL n = 36, control n = 33 groups). INOSEL group received group-based and person-centered intervention and control group received routine care. INOSEL and control groups showed an improvement in loneliness score. The decrease in loneliness score and level was higher in the INOSEL group. The physical activity, health status perception, social support, social inclusion, well-being, and spirituality scores increased in the INOSEL group. INOSEL group experienced an increase in the knowledge, behaviour and status. INOSEL program, a theoretical structure, reduced loneliness and positively affected women's health.
