Resumo
No âmbito do Mestrado de Gerontologia: Atividade Física e Saúde no idoso foi concretizado um estágio na Casa de Acolhimento Sol Nascente (CASL). O estágio permitiu-nos implementar na prática todo o conhecimento que adquirimos ao longo do nosso percurso académico. Durante o estágio foram realizadas várias atividades psicomotoras e de atividade física adaptadas à população assim como foi-me permitido integrar atividades que já integravam o plano da instituição. Na realização do estudo foram aplicados pré-testes a utentes e aos seus cuidadores. Da nossa amostra fizeram parte 5 utentes do sexo feminino e 9 do sexo masculino. As idades dos utentes eram compreendidas entre os 19 e os 55 anos, sendo uma média de idades de 33.86 anos. Através deste estudo foi possível apurar que a institucionalização na deficiência é muito importante para o aumento da autonomia, da criação de rotinas e da integração desta população na sociedade, sendo que os cuidadores verificaram uma diminuição da sua sobrecarga após a institucionalização da pessoa com deficiência e uma melhoria na qualidade de vida dos utentes pois estes demonstram uma maior estabilidade depois de serem institucionalizados. A nível pessoal e profissional este estágio foi muito bom, pois permitiu aumentar o conhecimento na área da deficiência e da forma como o nosso contributo pode fazer a diferença na vida desta população.
Within the scope of Master`s of Gerontology: physical activity and health in the elderly was carried out an internship at the Casa de Acolhimento Sol Nascente (CASL). The internship allowed us to implement in practice all the knowledge we acquired along our academic path. During the internship, several psychomotor activities and physical activity adapted to the population were carried out, as well as allowing me to integrate activities that were already part of the institution's plan. A cross-sectional study was carried out during the internship, which allowed the elaboration of an article that is present in this report, thus improving the research component. This study aimed to verify how the quality of life of people with disabilities influences the burden of informal caregivers. During the study, pre-tests were applied to users and their caregivers. Parto f our sample were 5 females users and 9 males, with an average age of 33.86 years. Through this study it was possible to determine that institutionalization in disability is very importante for increasing autonomy, the creation of routines and the integration of this population in society, and caregivers verified a decrease in their burden after the institutionalization of people with disabilities and an improvement in the quality of life of users as they demonstrate greater stability after being institutionalized. At a personal and professional level this internship was very good, improving knowledge of the área of disability and the way our contribution can make a difference in the life of this population.
