Resumo: | The Homes for the Aged (ILPI) are a type of home assistance, collective and with
longitudinal care, aimed at people aged 60 years or over, with or without family support,
where they must live in conditions of freedom, dignity and citizenship. However, in the
history of the institutionalization of old age, ILPI were also known as asylums that were
configured, at times, as spaces for the exercise of Christian charity and the protection of
individual and family poverty, with rules to limit and homogenize the activities of sheltered
elderly people, depriving them of social and family life, which is still observed in some ILPI.
In this sense, questions arise about the care offered, whose reflection focuses on the process of
asylum for institutionalized elderly people. The objective was to analyze the care offered to
institutionalized people. This research has a mixed approach, descriptive and exploratory and
was carried out in the philanthropic ILPI of the State of Rio Grande do Norte, registered in the
Unified Social Assistance System (SUAS) and recognized by the Health Surveillance. The
fieldwork was carried out in the first semester of 2019, through a script of direct nonparticipant observation, application of structured questionnaires and semi-structured
interviews with actors involved in the ILPI work process. The analysis of the data raised
aspects that cross and condition the care offered to residents. Thus, the discussions are
organized into three chapters, namely: 1- Profile of Long Term Care Institutions for the
Elderly and residents' quality of life; 2- The institutionalization of the elderly: between
curative and alienating care; and, 3- Live and coexist? Challenges and possibilities of care for
the elderly in Long Term Care Institutions. Therefore, the reflection on the care offered at the
ILPI shows a discontinuity in the dialogue between the social and health care networks,
producing the need for transformation in the long-term care of the elderly. The networks need
to come together for effective planning regarding public policies for the protection of the
elderly, showing strategies that meet the needs of Brazilian society in aging, through services
that support longitudinal care and promote the deinstitutionalization of elderly people in the
ILPI who have the possibility to return to live together in their family and community. |
