Abstract :Aging is one the unavoidable facts of humans and population aging is a major emerging problem for both developed and developing countries. Therefore, health and care in old age has been placed at the top of the agenda of countries. The study aims to bibliometrically analyze research on nursing home and identify the contribution of the field of health management to the development of this subject. Bibliometric analysis method was used in the study. As a citations, although there were 22 citations on the nursing home in 2008, with a total of 3039 citations made in 2021. The number of citations made in September/2022 is 2800. The subject received a total of 20.385 citations. The number of citations to a publication, excluding self-citations, is 16.634 and according to Scopus, its h-index is 57. As a journal, the Journal of Clinical Nursing comes first. \'Journal of Clinical Nursing\' ranks first with 126 articles, 2671 citations, and 86 total link strength. Among the top 25 journals, six journals are in the fields of health management, policies and informatics. It is in the top three of the \"Journal of The American Medical Director Association\", which has studies in the field of health policy. This result means that the nursing home issue has a high trend in the field of health policy. The first most cited article with 197 citations is \'An international definition for nursing home\' by Angela M. Sanford et al. (2015). As a result, there is extremely little research on this topic in the field of health management. However, nursing homes are not only a maintenance issue but also a big management issue. Therefore, the issue of nursing homes, which will be covered more in health management journals, will serve as a projection for creating a planned and practical health policy in relation to the care of the older people.Keywords : bibliyometrik analiz, huzurevi, sağlık yönetimi, scopus, yaşlı nüfus
