Participating subjects will be selected by nursing professionals from users of Area 3 of Health of the Region of Murcia over 65 years old, residing in the community and with a Social Isolation score <32 (Low perceived social support with DUFSS). Randomization will be performed after stratification according to whether the subjects live alone or accompanied, with a 1:1 ratio. Given an alpha level of 0.05, an anticipated effect size of 1.58, beta power equal to 1, 42 subjects are required in each group.
