METHODS: The health unit has 198 seniors who were registered by the Community Health Agents (ACS), consisting in the Information System of Primary Care (SIAB), identified as residents of the area covered by the unit, whether they are users of unit health. All were interviewed in their homes, regardless of their health condition. Also participating in the research team professionals working in Estratégia de Saúde da Família Menino Deus (ESFMD), plus an interview with members of the Núcleo de Apoio à Saúde da Famíla (NASF), totaling 16 professionals. The core team of professionals participated in a focus group, addressing the needs and demands of the elderly, the possibilities and limits of network services in meeting the demands. After analysis of this population and professionals, was set the number of study participants. In addition, we obtained information from the coordination of the Estratégia de Saúde da Família (ESF) on how the issue has been addressed in the old city. DATA ANALYSIS: The number of survey participants was initially of 198 seniors, selected by the data obtained in the Sistema de Informação da Atenção Básica (SIAB) relative to that health facility. Of these, 27 were excluded, resulting in a total of 171 elderly. The main reasons for exclusion were deaths (3), change of address (2), declined to participate (7) and the others were not found at home after 2 visitations and therefore considered as loss (15). In this selection, no elderly have been excluded for not able to answer the survey form, and all were interviewed in their homes. RESULTS: The most common age group was 60-69 years, with 106 elderly (62%), the majority being female (61%), white, married with 87 (50%) and 54 widowers (32%). Most have low education, having studied with 92 seniors completed primary education (up to 4 years) with 37 illiterate. This corresponds to 75% of respondents. Most live up to two minimum wages, which corresponds to 95% of this population. Most are retired and whose main occupation complement activity safrista tobacco companies in the city, this activity more common in both sexes. CONCLUSIONS: The study demonstrated that the profile of the elderly population has been found to meet reported by IBGE census 2010. Thus we find the need for it to be made an integrated work between university (UNISC) and municipal government intended to achieve better results in prevention work and both clinical and social care of the elderly. |
