Resumen
Se realizo un estudio descriptivo para determinar cuales son los factores de riesgo determinantes en el desarrollo de enfermedades asociadas a la higiene personal, en 44 pacientes pertenecientes a adulto mayor entre los 50 y 75 años de edad en el barrio mequejo, que hacen parte del comedor mis abuelos alegres.
Desde la antigüedad los hábitos de higiene personal como son: el baño diario, aseo de los dientes, lavado de manos, han sido uno de los mejores métodos para evitar las enfermedades.
En el adulto mayor estos hábitos se ven disminuidos debido a la falta de educación e interés en su apariencia.
En esta investigación se realizaron 44 encuestas, observándose una alta prevalencia de factores de riesgo, causantes de enfermedades infecciosas.
Teniendo en cuenta los datos obtenidos se realizaron diferentes actividades de educación a la población en estudio, con el objetivo de que fueran incluidas en sus hábitos diarios.
Se recomienda al personal de salud responsabilizarse de las actividades de promoción y prevención que ayuden al mejoramiento de la higiene personal en el adulto mayor.
