Evaluación del impacto Psicosocial del servicio domiciliario que los adultos mayores reciben en Guasmo Norte (Sector Sur) en base al proyecto “Mis mejores años” de la fundación Alianza Rio Guayas durante el período de mayo-septiembre 2023

Abstract

The following project aims to analyze the psychosocial impact of home care received by the elderly in Guasmo Norte. Leaving aside the physical environment to focus on the psychological environment, this is because during the 2020 pandemic one of the main groups that affected were the elderly, being people who need constant care and when they could no longer receive such help, they became an even more vulnerable group. Then we have the social sphere where isolation kept the entire population separated, generating more discomfort in the already affected older adults for not having the contact of family and friends to cope with such a terrible event. Due to this event, a psychosocial approach considered to improve the well-being of the elderly, generating programs that seek the integration of families and communities for the care of the elderly.
