Objectives. To identify, in older adults living in care centers in 3 western Mexican states, the functional capacity to perform 10 basic daily activities. Material and methods. A multicenter, cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted on 373 older adults from the states of Colima (n=151), Nayarit (n=111), and Jalisco (n=111). Through non-probability sampling (convenience sampling) and after obtaining informed consent, the Barthel scale was applied in order to identify functional capacity level. The demographic variables and the dominance level of each daily activity were analyzed using descriptive statistics. The chi-square test was employed to compare the physical functionality proportions based on sex.Statistically significant differ...
