Resumen: Es necesario considerar los principios de beneficencia y justicia para una atención individual de las mujeres mayores y la formación de sistemas sanitarios (o políticas sanitarias) de carácter ético donde prevalezca siempre la equidad. Para ser justo y beneficente es imprescindible ser eficiente, y ello se alcanza tomando en cuenta factores propios de las mujeres ancianas: salud física y mental, estado de vida, real acceso a los servicios, entre otros.Palabras clave: envejecimiento, género, salud, justicia y beneficencia GENDER, ELDERLY AND HEALTH CAREAbstract: It is necessary to consider the bioethical principles of beneficence and justice for giving individual health care to elderly women and for generating a health care system (or public policies) with an ethical approach where equity will be always present.
