| Summary: | The present study aimed to develop a conceptual model on the role of nurses in care to the elderly in primary health care services. Literature review and document analysis of 40 Brazilian normative documents that regulate primary care and/or care related to the elderly, and data was collected between April and August 2015. Consensus was obtained on information related to the four nursing meta paradigms. The human being was the person aged > 60 years; health/ disease: the set of physical, psychological, social, economic, cultural and environmental factors that pervade aging; and the environment: primary health care, a set of individual and collective health actions, covering health promotion and protection, disease prevention, diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation, reduction of damage and health maintenance; the nurse, who is responsible for management and health care. The model reflects the concepts related to the elderly, health/disease environment, as well as nursing assignments in primary care. |
