Resumo: The aim of the present study was to verify the important factors of tacesics that should be observed while touching the elderly. This qualitative and exploratory field of study was developed using 117 undergraduate students and healthcare professionals who participated in a training course regarding nonverbal communication in gerontology. The results revealed that the majority of the participants were able to identify at least one care factor that must be respected when touching the elderly. The discourses allowed for the construction of nine categories indicating the conditions that are necessary for high-quality affective care provided within the tacesics context; these conditions included the authorization for the touch to occur, location of the touch, intensity of the touch, condition of the elderly person, intentionality and type of touch, duration of the touch, gender and age of the person who touches and of the person being touched, frequency of the touch, and characteristics of the hands that touch. Touch is part of the quotidian practice of healthcare professionals and expresses their dedication and its related emotions, thereby revealing the quality of the care that is provided.

Estudio de campo, cualitativo, exploratorio, desarrollado con 117 estudiantes y profesionales de salud participantes de capacitación en comunicación no verbal en gerontología. Los resultados demostraron que la mayoría consiguió identificar al menos un factor de atención a respetarse al tocar al anciano. Los discursos permitieron construir nueve categorías tomando nota de condiciones necesarias para el cuidado afectivo y de calidad brindado en el marco del lenguaje del tacto, que fueron: autorización para que ocurra el toque; localización del toque; intensidad del toque; condición del anciano; intencionalidad y tipo de toque; duración del toque; sexo y edad de quien toca y de quien es tocado; frecuencia del toque y características de las manos que tocan. El tocar forma parte del cotidiano de los profesionales de salud y expresa cuidado y sentimientos; consecuentemente, revela la calidad de atención prestada.Verificar os aspectos tacêsicos importantes para serem observados ao tocar o idoso. Estudo de campo, qualitativo e exploratório desenvolvido com 117 graduandos e profissionais de saúde participantes da capacitação em comunicação não verbal em gerontologia. Os resultados revelam que a maioria conseguiu identificar, pelo menos, um fator de atenção que precisa ser respeitado ao tocar o idoso. Os discursos permitiram a construção de nove categorias apontando condições necessárias ao cuidado afetivo e de qualidade prestado no âmbito da tacêsica; quais sejam: autorização para que o toque ocorra; localização do toque; intensidade do toque; condição do idoso; intencionalidade e tipo de toque; duração do toque; sexo e idade de quem toca e quem é tocado; frequência do toque e características das mãos que tocam. O tocar faz parte do cotidiano dos profissionais da saúde e expressa zelo e sentimentos consequentemente, revela a qualidade da assistência prestada.Universidade de São Paulo.
