GARCIA CASO, María Julia. Infomed and the older adult. ACIMED [online]. 2006, vol.14, n.3, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1024-9435.

The experiences of Infomed in the community work and the benefits of the activities with the older adult, both in the population and among the workers of the organization, are exposed. The creation of “Las Mariposas" Grandparents' Circle, as well as the different developed projects, such as: “Gaining youth”, ”For my sincere friend”, “Love and life”, “From the city to the rural areas”, “For a little prince” and “The happy needle”, are approached. The work of a working organization with its community is an option to improve the quality of life of the older adult, to sensitise its workers with the needs of the people around them and to exploit potentialities that in many cases are yet to be discovered.

Palavras-chave : Infomed; community; older adult.
