Objective: To analyze the perceptions of care among elderly couples. Method: A qualitative exploratory-descriptive type study was carried out in Maringá in the state of Paraná, from May to June 2017. Data were collected through a semi-structured interview conducted at the home of 15 elderly couples and analyzed through Bardin’s Content Analysis, discussed in the light of Jean Watson’s Theory of Transpersonal Care. Results: Three thematic categories emerged: 1) meaning attributed to mutual care; 2) daily activities as forms of care and 3) feelings that permeate care among elderly couples. Conclusion: Elderly couples have multifaceted perceptions of care, permeated by their emotional relationship, bonding, partnership and everyday activities. Health professionals should consider the elderly couple rather than isolated individuals, in order to understand the multiple dimensions of care among elderly couples and their influences on health and well-being, facilitating integral and better quality care for this specific population.

It refers, therefore, to a source of pleasure, and there is no scientific evidence to justify its cancellation among the elderly (5,9) . However, society externalizes prejudices, myths and taboos when it comes to sexuality in this population (10)(11) , even health professionals (8) .…”
