| Resumo: | The Brazilian population is ageing rapidly, with life expectancy increasing as a result of better
living and health conditions. Given this scenario, it is necessary to adopt measures to guarantee
the well-being and quality of life of this population, which has specific health needs. In this
context, it is crucial that health professionals, including nurses, are prepared to meet the
demands of the elderly. To analyze the situation of nursing training for the health care of the
elderly population in public Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in Rio Grande doNorte. In
order to conduct this qualitative research, public HEIs in the state that offer a bachelor's degree
in Nursing were selected. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews with teachers
who are members of the Structuring Teaching Nucleus (NDE), appointed by the course
coordinators. In addition, two focus groups were held with final year students from two HEIs
in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, appointed by the student representative of the class or, in
their absence, by the course coordinator. The data collected was analyzed using the Content
Analysis technique. The results obtained by analyzing the data from the focus groups revealed
two categories: Pedagogical approach of nursing courses and Nursing training for working with
the elderly population. The interviews with teachers were categorized as follows: The structure
of nursing education in the public HEIs of Rio Grande do Norte and Nursing education for
working with the elderly population. This research revealed weaknesses in the curricular
structure of the pedagogical projects of nursingcourses in teaching the health of the elderly,
which is a relevant concern in light of Brazil's demographic and epidemiological scenario. |
