Participation in the coexistence center for elderly: repercussions and challenges - Revista Brasileira de Enfermagem
Revista Brasileira de Enfermagem. 07-29-2020;73(suppl 3):e20190226
To analyze the repercussions on the life of the elderly after joining a coexistence center and the existing challenges from the perspective of the participants and their families.
Qualitative research conducted with 16 elderly from a coexistence center and 14 family members. Data were collected through individual interviews and subjected to content analysis.
Two thematic categories were identified: “Before and after: changes in the life of the elderly after joining the coexistence center” and “Aspects needed to improve care in the coexistence center”.
The benefits of older people’s participation in the service are evidenced by changes in lifestyle and interrelationships. However, there is a need to expand assistance in these institutions, with a multidisciplinary team trained in gerontogeriatric care, as well as to consider the importance of nursing as a science of care and insert it in this service.
