Abstract

The goal was to analyze how the actions towards the health of the elder are planned and executed.The construction of the data was guided by a semi-structured interview questionnaire and the analysis for the discussion of the speeches.The actions towards the health of the elderly are gestated and materialized under the aegis of the fragmentation between the thinking and the action, not seeing the old age in its heterogeneity.
