Construção de uma tecnologia classificadora para atendimento de urgência geriátrica destinada aos cuidadores de idosos. 2021. Dissertação (Mestrado Profissional em Ensino em Saúde – Educação Médica) – Centro Universitário do Estado do Pará, Belém, 2021.https://repositorio.cesupa.br/handle/123456789/904The profession of caregiver for the elderly is an emerging profession, since the demand is due to the growing elderly population in the world. According to projections in 2060, the Brazilian elderly population should triple and represent about 25% of the population. However, the presence of caregivers who do not have qualifications is a problem, as this directly reflects on the ability to assess and diagnose the situation in which the elderly person is. Therefore, this study aimed to develop a printed instrument classifier for geriatric emergency care for caregivers of the elderly. The methodology of this study took place through a literature review of the last 10 years, aiming to elucidate the theme and thus based on the information obtained to build the printed instrument. The results showed that the applicability of educational instruments in health is of paramount importance, even for those who do not have training in the area, as is the reality of many caregivers in the country, so the instrument built was based on colors already used for a better understanding of the tool. We conclude that the applicability of the tool is easy to understand and can assist in the assessment and decision-making of caregivers, thus preventing the elderly from having adequate care and prognosis promptly.Acesso AbertoAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/CuidadoresGeriatriaEducação em saúdeClassificação de riscoCIENCIAS DA SAUDEDissertação
