A non- experimental, descriptive research using survey technique was used in this study. This research method was used in describing the socio-demographic profile, community profile, availability of health and safety services, and the level of utilization in health and safety in the community for the elderly people. Data were analyzed using mean, frequency counts, percentage distribution and standard deviation. Data were gathered through personal interview using a modified-adapted questionnaire to identify if the elderly are utilizing the services and programs on health and safety in the community. The 444 participants were 60 years old and above who passed the inclusion criteria of this study. Majority of the participants are female, aged 60 to 61 years old, most of them were married, elementary levels and self-employed. Majority of them had a family income ranges from 1,000 and below and belonged to nuclear family. During gathering of the data, it was observed that majority of the participants were unaware regarding the allotted health and safety services for them. Base on the analyzed data, the elderly in MAGNAMARTE were utilizing the safety services more often than they utilize the different health services such as free vaccination, free consultation, free medication for diabetes, hypertension, TB, etc., due to lack of supplies within their community which are given by the government. The study recommends that the gathered data be used for developing programs for elderly and identifying the level of awareness of the elderly in the provided services. The health care professionals especially those who were working in the community should be reached out and be given health education regarding the services for the elderly. And for the future researchers, to conduct a similar study in Other municipality of Cavite and identify the relationship of the demographic profile and the level of utilization of the existing health and safety services.
