Resumo: | The significant change in the demographic profile of the world shows an accelerated process of global aging. To achieve an active and healthy aging it is necessary to maintain a good physical, psychological and social functioning, along with that, it is necessary to invest in interventions that reduce the incidence of health demands and improve the quality of life. In view of this, the objective was to develop multidimensional interventions, based on health demands, aiming at improving the quality of life of elderly enrolled in the Family Health Strategy. This is a quantitative, descriptive and methodological study involving elderly enrolled in the Family Health Strategy of Natal and Santa Cruz, both in Rio Grande do Norte. The sample consisted of 120 elderly individuals who met the inclusion criteria. The study was developed in three phases. Data collection, data analysis and planning of multidimensional and multidisciplinary interventions. Non-parametric tests (Chi-square, Mann Whitney and Spearman's correlation) were used to analyze the data. The research was approved by the Research Ethics Center of the Onofre Lopes University Hospital and asked the participants to sign the Informed Consent Term. It was observed that 88.3% of the elderly presented functional health demand, 70.0% nutritional and 40% depressive symptoms. Their total QOL score was considered satisfactory (Md: 68.9). However, the main health demands that correlated with QoL were depressive symptoms, followed by functional health demand. From these health demands it was possible to plan multidimensional and multidisciplinary interventions. Seven strategies were planned (market simulation, exercise practice, nutritional lecture, food bingo, introduction to technology, use of technology involving nutrition and physical activities) for group application with an average duration of one and a half hours. It was verified the importance of intervention with the elderly to keep them active, independent, with social and healthy contact. In order to do this, it is necessary to increase the involvement of Family Health Strategies, since it is the gateway to health services that aims to promote health and prevent injuries. |
