To understand the elderly's perception of their current condition.
Study undertaken in 2012 using the qualitative method of Minayo and the thematic analysis according to Bardin's suggestions. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews that took place in the homes of the elderly people. The guiding question was: At this point in your life, how do you feel? Tell me.
The elderly who were satisfied stated that this was due to the good relationship with their family, spouse, to the fact of having autonomy and respect from the society. Those who were shown to be dissatisfied reported lack of family support, physical limitations imposed by age and the presence of illnesses as the main causes.
The adult population requires the use of care technologies that cover all the stages of life, including old age. Nursing professionals should be prepared for the increasing care demand of these people.
了解老年人对自身当前状况的认知。
2012年采用米纳约的定性方法并根据巴丁的建议进行主题分析开展研究。数据通过在老年人住所进行的半结构化访谈收集。指导性问题为：在你生命的这个阶段，你感觉如何？告诉我。
感到满意的老年人表示，这得益于与家人、配偶的良好关系，得益于拥有自主权以及受到社会尊重。那些表示不满意的老年人报告称，主要原因是缺乏家庭支持、年龄带来的身体限制以及疾病的存在。
成年人群需要使用涵盖生命各个阶段（包括老年阶段）的护理技术。护理专业人员应做好准备，应对这些人群日益增长的护理需求。
