Esta dissertação de mestrado é constituída por um estudo quantitativo, referente às
visitas a idosos institucionalizados em Estruturas Residenciais para Pessoas Idosas
(ERPI) na cidade de Fafe. Deste estudo fazem parte seis instituições situadas na cidade
de Fafe, sendo que duas delas têm uma localização mais central em relação ao centro da
cidade e quatro encontram-se localizadas na periferia da cidade. De cada instituição
foram selecionados aleatoriamente dez utentes para fazerem parte da amostra deste
estudo. Durante um ano, em quatro alturas do ano previamente selecionadas, foram
registadas todas as visitas que os utentes participantes no estudo recebiam, registando
algumas informações relativamente às mesmas. Concluímos que existem visitas aos
utentes institucionalizados em ERPI na cidade de Fafe, embora não apresentem um
padrão de regularidade. Na sua maioria os utentes são visitados pelos seus familiares
mais próximos; no que diz respeito à família alargada, apesar de existir registos de
algumas visitas, os mesmos não se traduzem em números significativos. O padrão de
visitas é comum à maioria das instituições do concelho de Fafe e à maior parte dos
respetivos utentes.
This master's thesis consists of a quantitative study, referring to visits to institutionalized elderly in Residential Structures for the Elderly (ERPI) in the city of Fafe. This study includes six institutions located in the city of Fafe, two of which are more centrally located in relation to the city center and four are located on the outskirts of the city. From each institution, ten users were randomly selected to be part of the sample of this study. During a year, at four previously selected times of the year, all visits that users participating in the study received were recorded, recording some information regarding them. We conclude that there are visits to institutionalized users in ERPI in the city of Fafe, although they do not show a regularity pattern. Most users are visited by their closest family members; with regard to the extended family, although there are records of some visits, they do not translate into significant numbers. The pattern of visits is common to most institutions in the municipality of Fafe and most of the respective users.
