The analysis has been using the data from the survey {\textquotedblleft}Social Diagnosis{\textquotedblright} carried out in 2013, in Poland. The research concentrates on subjective measures, used to assess the population{\textquoteright}s state of health, based both on mortality and disability studies, while disability is defined as reduced ability to carry out daily activities. The authors have evaluated the health status of the elderly in Poland in 2013, using measures of health function (ADL) and activity restrictions (IADL). The results show, that functional health of older people in Poland is significantly correlated with age and sex of respondents. The interpretation and the conceptualization of desirable directions of changes should lead to active life style{\textquoteright}s promoting, adjusted, accordingly, to health state and age. It also provides important information for social care managers, by defining needed form of interventions. },
