Elder people population grows fast almost in all the countries, so it is necessary to introduce measures to protect the future wellbeing and health of this group of population, giving particular attention to less aggressive therapies, without secondary effects.  This research evaluated the availability of the human resources and materials to treat elder people with respiratory diseases with phytopharmaceutical products in the health area of the Policlinic Dr. Francisco Figueroa Veliz, of the municipality of Colon, province of Matanzas. The methodological design used is in correspondence with the principles, laws and categories of the dialectic materialism and its scientific method. To collect data we used an instrument elaborated by the working team with this aim and validated in its functioning.  We found that all the organizational units of the health area have problems with the available resources forming their structures.
