The objective was to investigate the effect of an educational intervention on the attitude about old age of five institutionalized elderly caregivers. The intervention consisted of four sessions where videos were presented, addressing topics pertinent to old age, followed by questions and reflections. The results show a positive attitude change, especially in those aspects related to the social image of the elderly, which can bring benefits to elderly care.Downloads
