dc.description.abstractObjective: To analyze the experience of caring for the elderly using the biopsychosocial approach, based on the scientific evidence, in order to strengthen health care in Latin America. Method: An integrative review of original and systemic review articles, published between 2014 and 2019. The search was conducted using MEDLINE (Produced in the National Library of Medicine of the United States), LILACS (Latin American Literature and of the Caribbean in Health Sciences), CUMED (Cuban Medical Literature), and BDENF (Virtual Health Library in Nursing). Search descriptors included: older adult, and needs assessment. Fifteen articles were identified that met the inclusion criteria. Results: The main health needs of the elderly population correspond to problems related to specific pathologies and health problems. The Psychological and social needs arise from living alone, social isolation, recent functional dependence, low social interaction, depression in old age, management of the physical or social environment, changes in sexual relationships, abuse and neglect. Conclusions: The needs biopsychosocial can be supported with general health education relevant to older adults; such education needs to focus on the specific needs and life experience of each elderly person.
