Yet, in the present time, health is often neglected due to poverty. This prompted the researchers to trace the health status of the elderly fishermen in Sta. Elena, Buhi, Camarines Sur for early identification and address the deemed health issues with proper interventions. This study was conducted to determine the health status of the elderly fishermen in Sta. Elena, Buhi, Camarines Sur. More specifically, it sought inputs on the profile, health status of the respondents, risk factors affecting their health status, significant relationship between the profile of the respondents and their health status, and lastly, formulated a plan to address the factors affecting the health status of the respondents. 34 elderly fishermen of Sta. Elena, Buhi, Camarines Sur participated in this study. This study focuses on the participants aged 45 years of age and above. The descriptive method was utilized in this study. Data was collected through survey questionnaires and record review and were tallied, analyzed, and statistically evaluated using Percentage Technique, Weighted Mean, Likert Scale, and Pearson Correlation Coefficient. The results revealed that the participants regarded weather, climate, and financial problems as the primary factors influencing their health status. Therefore, health promotion and prevention should be implemented to address the fishermen's problem by encouraging them to avail of free health services from the Rural Health Unit to manage their health.
