The subjects’ perceptions evidenced that the companion should remain with the elderly during the hospitalization period by being a facilitator of care, however difficulties were reported regarding to the physical space for their accommodation. The abandonment was expressed as a barrier to continuity of care after discharge. It was concluded that there’s a need for the nursing staff to introduce the companion in care integral care, fostering their preparation and training, in order to seek the continuity of care to the elderly at home. |
