O presente Relatório de Estágio desenvolvido no âmbito do Mestrado em Gerontologia
Social, explora a implementação da Metodologia de Cuidado Humanitude (MCH) numa
Estrutura Residencial para Pessoas Idosas, investigando o seu impacto nos cuidados prestados
aos/às idosos/as. A metodologia, adiantada por Yves Gineste e Rosette Marescotti, visa
humanizar o cuidado, focando-se na consideração pela dignidade e independência dos/as
utentes. A pesquisa teórica tratou o envelhecimento como um processo multidimensional e
destacou o papel transformador da Humanitude na melhoria da qualidade de vida dos/as
idosos/as institucionalizados/as (Henriques, Dourado, Melo, & Tanaka, 2019; Santos, 2024;
Sousa, 2015).
A metodologia de pesquisa utilizou uma abordagem mista, que combinou formas
qualitativas e quantitativas. A qualitativa envolveu entrevistas com os/as profissionais da
instituição, a observação direta das práticas institucionais e a análise documental. Por sua vez,
a abordagem quantitativa incluiu a análise de dados sociodemográficos dos/as residentes e
focou-se na avaliação da qualidade das formações proporcionadas aos/às cuidadores/as,
medindo a sua eficácia. A aplicação prática da metodologia incluiu intervenções como a
reorganização dos espaços, a humanização das refeições e a personalização dos cuidados
prestados. Os resultados demonstraram benefícios tanto para os/as idosos/as, que apresentaram
maior autonomia e autoestima, quanto para os/as cuidadores/as, que relataram maior satisfação
e empatia no trabalho.
À semelhança disto, as considerações finais indicaram que a implementação da MCH
na instituição promoveu um ambiente mais acolhedor e humano, onde a formação dos/as
profissionais e a adaptação contínua dos espaços funcionam como elementos-chave para
garantir o impacto benéfico desta abordagem nos cuidados geriátricos oferecidos.
This Internship Report, developed as part of the Master's Degree in Social Gerontology, explores the implementation of the Humanitude Care Methodology (MCH) in a Residential Facility for the Elderly, investigating its impact on the care provided to the elderly. The methodology, put forward by Yves Gineste and Rosette Marescotti, aims to humanize care, focusing on consideration for the dignity and independence of users. The theoretical research dealt with ageing as a multidimensional process and highlighted the transformative role of Humanitude in improving the quality of life of institutionalized elderly people. The research methodology used a mixed approach, combining qualitative and quantitative forms. The qualitative approach involved interviews with the institution's professionals, direct observation of institutional practices and document analysis. In turn, the quantitative approach included the analysis of residents' sociodemographic data and focused on evaluating the quality of the training provided to caregivers, measuring its effectiveness. The practical application of the methodology included interventions such as reorganizing spaces, humanizing meals and personalizing the care provided. The results showed benefits both for the elderly, who had greater autonomy and self-esteem, and for the caregivers, who reported greater job satisfaction and empathy. Similarly, the final considerations indicate that the implementation of MCH in the institution has promoted a more welcoming and humane environment, where the training of professionals and the continuous adaptation of spaces are key elements in guaranteeing the beneficial impact of this approach on the geriatric care offered.
