Abstract:

This article originated in research thesis entitled "Working Procedure of the Nurse in Promoting Health of the Elderly within the Family Health Strategy and aims to describe the configuration of nursing work with the elderly at the Family Health Strategy, highlighting situations where they would concentrate their activity. Characterized like exploratory and descriptive qualitative, this study had like informers nurses working with FHS the city of Florianópolis/SC. Data were collected through narrative interviews and the results were subjected to content analysis technique, resulting in three thematic categories and their subcategories: Personal care: the nursing consultation with the elderly (Query Centered Disease and Consultation Elderly); The collective care: acting in groups (Internal Groups and External Groups); and Care at home: the visit as performance space. The results showed that nurses‘ work in promoting the health of the elderly in the FHS is being structured in accordance with the demands that emerge in daily population, presenting some contradictions regarding the care model in progress, a situation that puts forward to the challenge of reviewing their practices and rethink ways to operate the work in elderly care, aiming to develop tools and methodologies based on political knowledge and socially established in order to gain and demarcate their sphere of action in the field of health.
