Care for the institutionalized elderly in the perspective of a peaceful end of life
Abstract
Objective: to understand how care at the end of life is provided to the elderly in the Long Stay Institution for the Elderly (LSIE) from the perspective of the Peaceful End of Life Theory. Method: descriptive, interpretative study of a qualitative clinical nature, conducted with 12 collaborators of a Long Stay Institution for the Elderly in a city in the Northeast of Brazil. Data were collected in May and June 2021. They were organized with the help of IRaMuTeQ software and analyzed according to the Peaceful End of Life Theory. Results: two categories emerged: family support, lack of knowledge and fear of the team and their implications for the care of the elderly at the end of life and care for the promotion of comfort to the elderly at the end of life. Final considerations: pain control and physical comfort were more present on the care at the end of life in the LSIE, highlighting the need for greater investment in the permanent education of the caregiver team so that they can provide care to the elderly and their families, especially regarding autonomy and the preparation of mourning. The study allows us to understand how professional care is provided at the end of life of the elderly in a Long Stay Institution for the Elderly.
