    Calidad de vida del adulto mayor en Medellín 2001-2017 : una mirada desde las estrategias estatales
    (Universidad EAFIT, 2018) Echavarría López, Yesica; Tobón Lotero, Juan Diego
    The public strategies in regard of the quality of life for older people first appeared in 2001 with the Public Policy created for this population. Although there was a series of municipal changes that allowed us to think about the increase of older people, such as life expectancy and the decrease in birth rates, these transformations in the society had effects in the construction of some plans and strategies to serve this population in the last two decades. The purpose of this article is to analyze the strategies that emerged between 2001 and 2017 in relation to the elders and its articulation with the Municipal Development Plans. At the same time, it generates a discussion about the challenges, difficulties, needs and possible lines of action that arises at the work with older people in a mobile and dynamic context. This review shows that, according to the reviewed sources, the strategies have been essentially the same, and there have been very little plans proposing new interventions in accordance with the changes this population have had. In addition to this, most plans involve dealing with elders who have socio-economical difficulties, while people with other difficulties are left out. Additionally, there is no culture of aging in the city on how to deal with this natural period of life.

    Estrategia comportamental para aumentar los espacios de desconexión en personal de enfermería, gerontología y cuidadoras en un hogar gerontológico de Medellín
    (Universidad EAFIT, 2024) Múnera Quintero, Victor Alfonso; Aguirre, David Alejandro; Lemos Hoyos, Mariantonia
    This study aimed to design, implement, and evaluate a behavioral intervention using the EAST Framework with the goal of improving the burnout index by increasing disconnection behaviors among nursing assistants, gerontology workers, and caregivers at a Gerontological Home specializing in degenerative diseases (dementia) in Medellín. The intervention consisted of four components: 1. A physical space called the Disconnection Zone, 2. Videos called Wellness Capsules, 3. A WhatsApp group named Conscious Well-being, and 4. Another WhatsApp group called Sharing Well-being. The intervention was evaluated through a qualitative workshop, as initial high desirability prevented participants from reporting burnout levels at the beginning of the intervention. The results indicate that the Disconnection Zone was well received by the healthcare staff, and the disconnection groups were also positively valued, though variability in their use was observed. Additionally, the disconnection videos became a key tool for those experiencing unexpected moments of unrest and stress, due to their easy access and brevity, which allowed them to be used as a quick strategy to increase moments of disconnection for the healthcare staff at the Gerontological Home.
