Educational and Care-Related Dialogical Pathway on Active Aging With Family Health Strategy Professionals

Abstract

Objective: to disclose knowledge and practices related to active aging based on the educational and care-related dialogical proposal with professionals from the Family Health Strategy. Method: a convergent care research developed with professionals from the Family Health Strategy, in a municipality in the Central North area of Paraná-Brazil. Data was collected through interviews with 14 professionals with an average duration of 12 minutes followed by a Culture Circle with four professionals and a duration of 59 minutes, following the educational stages of the same, namely: investigation, thematization and disclosure. The premises of Freire's dialogicity were used as a theoretical framework. Results: the data show that professionals have different conceptions about aging, distinct ways of conceptualizing active aging, and scarcity of systematization for the care of the robust elderly. These findings were the basis for the dialogical educational design that allowed to transform and build new knowledge on the theme. Conclusion: the educational and care-related dialogical pathway allowed the collective definition of aging and the understanding of active aging, thus making it possible to advance towards the promotion of comprehensive care for the elderly. The convergent care research approach is shown to be effective for studies of an educational dialogic nature due to its insertion in the context of study and collective construction based on reality.

“…This perspective is conducted by reflection-action, aiming to reach liberty not only in the cognitive field, but, essentially, in the social and political ones. In the scope of health, the epistemological constructs of Paulo Freire have pushed forward (5,(10)(11) researches that propose to offer health education for the groups in the community, which is seen as a fruitful path to make viable new actors in a production of care that is committed to autonomy and to a critical awareness about reality.…”

O impacto do isolamento social na qualidade de vida dos idosos durante a pandemia por COVID-19

“…Neste contexto, observa-se a importância do grupo de apoio a esses idosos nos momentos de dificuldade decorrentes do isolamento social profilático, sendo estes tanto profissionais quanto familiares. Devem ser elaboradas estratégias para inclusão do indivíduo dentro do ambiente doméstico, tornando-o parte da rotina e assim melhorando sua qualidade de vida [30,31].…”
