contents The impact of discursive linguistic activities in promoting the health of elderly people in a long-term care institution Isis Aline Lourenço de Souza Giselle Massi Ana Paula Berberian Ana Cristina Guarinello Luciana Carnevale Salud Aging Speech Language Health promotion Homes for the aged The present study aims to analyze the impact of linguistic-discursive activities in health promotion for a group of elderly residents in a longterm care institution for the elderly (ILPI, for its acronym in Portuguese) in Paraná. This is a qualitative case study that was carried out with 10 subjects of 60 years of age, living in an ILPI. Subjects with linguistic or neurological limitations were excluded from the study. The data was analyzed according to the Bakhtinian view of language. It was collected through semi-structured interviews, performed orally and individually with seniors after their participation in 16 focus group meetings. The results showed the importance of group interaction and dialogical activities among the elderly participants, since it promoted experiences of learning, self-knowledge, acceptance and belonging. Such activities also resulted in the active participation of the subjects in the construction of social bonds, in the formation of feelings and resignificance about themselves and the collective. It was concluded that the development of speech therapy actions capable of formulating and establishing strategies to promote the health of the elderly who are institutionalized in ILPS is urgent. Thus, speech therapy ought to invest in developing research projects around initiatives that value and promote dialogical practices that are able to empower and ensure autonomy for the elderly population. 2015 artículo científico 2317-6431 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=391544062015 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=3915 Audiology - Communication Research application/pdf Academia Brasileira de Audiologia Audiology - Communication Research (Brasil) Num.2 Vol.20
