Resumo:INTRODUCTION: The aging of brazilian population has been accelerating in recent years, and this phenomenon demands changes in society in view of an increasing number of people who need special care. In this context, medical courses need to adapt to the new reality by inserting in their curricular structures specific contents on the health of the elderly. This new situation also requires more and better-specialized services in the care of the elderly. This project aimed to structure and implement a service for elderly in the region of Caicó, with the purpose of improving the care provided to this population, as well as creating a practical learning scenario for undergraduate and graduate students at Escola Multicampi de Ciências Médicas da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte. METHODS: The process of organization of the service included: articulation with the managers to define the place, development of the attendance sheet with adaptation of the Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment (AGA) and an Attendance Protocol (anamnesis and physical examination) for the first consultation and a follow-up for reevaluations and returns. RESULTS: Two services were structured, the post-discharge clinic at the Caicó Regional Hospital and the General Geriatrics outpatient clinic at the EMCM School Clinic Resident medical doctors and students of medical graduation make the attendance from EMCM/UFRN, with supervision of the doctor and professor specializing in Geriatrics. CONCLUSION:From this, it is affirmed that the present study fomented a new strategy and became a new social equipment in health care for the Elderly, considering its importance in dimensions that cross medical care, such as socio-demographic conditions and quality of life.
