Summary

INTRODUCTION: aging is the natural process of deterioration of the reserves of biological systems, human beings are inherent to this process. The elderly population in Brazil grows very quickly, this is due to the drop in fertility, mortality and increased life expectancy. OBJECTIVE: to promote the planning of guiding and educational actions based on the qualification of the frailty of the elderly in the Basic Health Unit of the study through the use of the Multidimensional Assessment of the Elderly in Primary Care (AMPI/AB) tool. METHODOLOGY: an experimental, longitudinal, prospective and analytical study aimed at approximately 20 pre-frail elderly people residing in a specific area of a Family Health Unit in the city of Guarulhos/SP. A survey of data referring to the application of AMPI/AB carried out in 2021 and classified as pre-fragile will be carried out, in order to later select them for research. The participant will receive educational guidance on nutrition, use of medications and nursing guidance as identified as needs. Three months after the intervention, AMPI/AB will be applied in order to observe whether the pre-frail elderly remained or changed category after the experimental multidisciplinary educational interventions.
