Objective: To understand the perception of the Primary Health Care multiprofessional team on the practices of health education and on the role of nurses in the performance of educational activities. Method: Exploratory and descriptive study with a qualitative approach. Data were collected through a semi-structured interview with the participation of 12 professionals from the Family Health Strategy. To analyze the data, we used the technique of content analysis, with thematic approach, proposed by Bardin. Results: Three categories emerged: Perception of the multiprofessional team on health education; Educational practices in Primary Health Care: everyone's task?; and The role of nurses in health education. Final considerations: It was verified that the multiprofessional team perceives health education as being the responsibility of all the professionals. Some professionals consider the nurse as an important educator, others as executor of management and care actions and, to a lesser extent, of educational actions.
Objective: To assess the quality of life of institutionalized frail elderly. Methods: Cross-sectional study including 33 frail and pre-frail elderly, classified based on the Edmonton Frailty Scale. An instrument was applied to characterize the sociodemographic aspects and the World Health Organization Quality of Life for Older Persons to assess the quality of life. Results: The female sex was predominant (54.5%) and the mean age was 76.8 years (±9.3). A significant association was observed between the quality of life and all of its facets, and a strong relation was found between quality of life and "past, present and future activities" (r=0.715; p<0.001). Conclusion: The presence of frailty did not interfere directly in the elderly's quality of life and showed a significant association with the motive for the institutionalization.
