Resumo(s)
Retirement involves changes and transformations at various levels, requiring everyone the ability to adapt to a new phase of their life cycle. It is an inseparable event of ageing that consists in the termination of professional activities and usually occurs during the middle age stage. Not seen as a social problem, the way the process of transition and adaptation to retirement is experienced may cause situations of vulnerability, isolation, loneliness and social exclusion. The greater or lesser quality of life in aging is associated with the context and circumstances to person is a subject of. In this way, it becomes essential to guarantee the necessary conditions for them to be able to age well and with quality. Methodologically, an exploratory study was carried out with an eminently qualitative approach, using two data collection strategies: the semi-structured interview with 8 professionals and the questionnaire survey of 100 people aged 55 or over. The preparation and planning of this phase are preponderant in the promotion of successful transition-adaptation processes since they allow reducing the period of disorganization and promote new beginnings and meaningful lives. The key aspects to be incorporated into an intervention proposal focused on the preparation of retirement are presented.
