El Impacto del Maltrato contra Envejecidos en el Componente Físico, Emocional y Social desde la Percepción de Cinco Profesionales de la Salud


Book Description

Este trabajo de investigación procura abarcar el impacto físico, social y emocional que tiene el maltrato en personas envejecidas desde la perspectiva de cinco profesionales de la salud que hayan trabajado e intervenido con esta población por un tiempo mínimo de dos (2) años. Para llevar a cabo este estudio se utilizó un método cualitativo. Los participantes del estudio fueron un total de cinco profesionales de la salud, de ambos géneros que cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión establecidos por la investigadora. Se desarrolló una guía de preguntas abiertas a seguir durante la entrevista semi-estructurada grabada. El guía de preguntas consistió de un total de 22 preguntas dividas en (3) partes (Apéndice B). Se le leyó y se le entregó una hoja de consentimiento y confidencialidad (Apéndice A). A través de estas cinco entrevistas, se logró obtener la percepción y experiencia de estos profesionales de la salud que hayan trabajando e interviniendo con personas envejecidas sobrevivientes de maltrato. Se identificó la teoría de la actividad y satisfacción de la vida como el marco de referencia. Los resultados obtenidos demuestran la gran necesidad que existe para sensibilizarnos y aumentar la educación del proceso de envejecimiento para poder identificar e intervenir en casos de maltrato de nuestra población envejecida. He llegado a la conclusión, que es urgente entender el proceso del envejecimiento, las necesidades y el valor de esta etapa de la vida. Dediquemos nuestro tiempo y esfuerzo para compartir nuestra atención, cariño y afecto con nuestros envejecidos que tanto ellos también dieron y aportaron en nuestra crianza y desarrollo.
