- Abstract
The focus of this study was to investigate the perception and coping with the aging process by consecrated religious women. Method: descriptive, qualitative research. 32 semi-structured interviews were carried out and analyzed according to the systematization of thematic-categorical content. Results: Three categories emerged: 1) "aging", which is divided into three subcategories: the perception of aging; the denial of the aging process and facing the aging process; 2) "religious life", which has two subcategories: mission/being religious and prayer: the connection with God; 3) "care", which is divided into the subcategories: the reality of care and; how care should be performed. Conclusions: Consecrated religious women need humanistic and not just biomedical care. The professionals who assist them need to respect their life stories and evaluate the possibility of continuing their mission, adapting their service life to their functional and cognitive possibilities.
