Saúde da família em famílias com idosos em Funza, Cundinamarca

Objective: To describe the family health in families with elderly in the municipality of Funza. Materials and methods: Descriptive transverse study with quantitative boarding and a sample of 71 families selected by convenience. It was used the Instrumento de Salud Familiar (ISF GEN: 25). Results: More than a half of the families are extensive, distributed as modified extensive (47%) and extensive (16%), there predominate family cycles with adults (45%), teenagers (28%) and the old family formed by a couple of elderly (11%). The elderly and women are the ones who looked more sick, as well as old people who live in couples (81%), who belong to extensive modified families (61%), nuclear families (60%) and atypical (60%). The Health Center is the main support system for the families (83.1%). Almost half of the families consider themselves very littlehealthy (47.9%) satisfied (51%) and highly satisfied (17%). Discussion and Conclusions: The study shows that families with elderly are classified as healthy and satisfied. The participation of elderly in a social organization does not have an effect on a better perception of health condition and family satisfaction, opposite to other studies that register family benefits from participating in social organizations. Family health that reflects internal interaction in family is a very relevant area for Nursery, but requires more investigation and inclusion in individual health programs, public health programs and education programs for health professionals Objetivo: Describir la salud familiar en las familias con personas mayores en el municipio de Funza. Materiales y métodos: Estudio descriptivo transversal con abordaje cuantitativo. Muestra de 71 familias seleccionadas por conveniencia. Se utilizó el Instrumento de Salud Familiar (ISF GEN: 25). Resultados: Más de la mitad de las familias son extensas, distribuidas como extensas modificadas (47%) y extensas (16%); predominan los ciclos familiares con adultos (45%), adolescentes (28%) y la familia anciana conformada por la pareja de personas mayores (11%). Las personas mayores y las mujeres son quienes se perciben más enfermos, al igual que las personas mayores que viven en pareja (81%), que pertenecen a familias extensas modificadas (61%), en familias nucleares (60%) y atípicas (60%). El centro de salud es el principal sistema de apoyo de las familias (83,1%). Casi la mitad de las familias se consideran poco saludables (47,9%) frente a sentirse satisfechas (51%) y altamente satisfechas (17%). Discusión y conclusiones: El estudio indica que las familias con personas mayores se clasifican en saludables y satisfechas. La participación de las personas mayores en una organización social no repercute en la mejor percepción del estado de salud y la satisfacción de la familia, contrario a otros estudios que registran beneficios familiares al ser participantes en organizaciones sociales. La salud familiar que refleja interacción interna en familia es relevante para enfermería, pero necesita mayor investigación e inclusión en los programas de salud individual, pública y los programas de formación de profesionales de la salud.
