Resumen
El aumento significativo de personas adultas mayores trae consigo desafíos importantes de atender a nivel país, así como a nivel mundial. El crecimiento de dicha población demanda cambios importantes en actividades tanto sociales como políticas, por lo tanto, es importante crear alternativas que de manera efectiva atiendan sus necesidades diarias.
En relación con lo mencionado, se sabe que los centros diurnos en Costa Rica contribuyen y promueven la atención integral de las personas adultas mayores. Por lo tanto, ante la realidad del aumento de esta población etaria, por medio de la presente investigación se pretende estudiar los procesos de planificación dentro del centro diurno La Casa de los Abuelos, así como los programas y proyectos en pro de la calidad de vida de la población beneficiaria que asiste de manera regular a dicha institución. La investigación se realiza en San Jorge de San Francisco de Heredia, cuyo rango de estudio se realizará del 2014 al año 2019.
Cabe destacar que el proceso indagatorio integra datos sobre la situación social de las personas adultas mayores, población meta, la cual consiste en un total de 30 personas integradas en esta institución. Por lo tanto, ha sido relevante analizar los procesos de gestión bajo los cuales se orienta la organización para el cumplimiento de su rol como institución de bien social.
Por otra parte, dentro de los principales resultados de la investigación, se identifican los limitados procesos de planificación institucional en el centro diurno, en pro de la calidad de vida de las personas adultas mayores.
También se identifica una deficiencia en las alianzas estratégicas con organizaciones cercanas que cuenten con responsabilidad social, empresarial y que puedan brindar algún servicio o contribución en diversos ámbitos al Centro Diurno.
De acuerdo con la información recopilada a partir del tema de investigación, se proponen acciones estratégicas vinculadas con los intereses y necesidades de la población adulta mayor en el Centro Diurno, como lo es la creación de un plan estratégico que pueda dar un mejor direccionamiento a la institución, así como el aprovechamiento de los recursos con los que cuenta para dar una atención integral a su población beneficiaria.
Por otro lado, se considera relevante que se brinden capacitaciones constantes al personal que trabaja en el Centro Diurno con el fin de darles un desarrollo integral a las y los trabajadores. La comunicación se identifica como una acción que debe trabajarse entre el personal del Centro Diurno, y con esto fortalecer el sentido de pertenencia de todas las personas que laboran en La Casa de los Abuelos
The significant increase in older adults brings with it important challenges to attend to at the country level, as well as at the global level. The growth of this population demands important changes in both social and political activities, therefore, it is important to create alternatives that effectively meet their daily needs. In relation to the above, it is known that day centers in Costa Rica contribute and promote comprehensive care for older adults. Therefore, given the reality of the increase in this age population, through this research we intend to study the planning processes within the La Casa de los Abuelos day center, as well as the programs and projects for quality of life. of the beneficiary population that attends said institution on a regular basis. The research is carried out in San Jorge de San Francisco de Heredia, whose study range will be carried out from 2014 to 2019. It should be noted that the investigative process integrates data on the social situation of older adults, the target population, which consists of a total of 30 people integrated in this institution. Therefore, it has been relevant to analyze the management processes under which the organization is oriented to fulfill its role as an institution of social good. On the other hand, within the main results of the research, the limited institutional planning processes in the day center are identified, in favor of the quality of life of older adults. A deficiency is also identified in strategic alliances with nearby organizations that have social, business responsibility and that can provide some service or contribution in various areas to the Day Center. According to the information collected from the research topic, strategic actions linked to the interests and needs of the elderly population in the Day Center are proposed, such as the creation of a strategic plan that can give a better direction to the institution, as well as the use of the resources it has to provide comprehensive care to its beneficiary population. On the other hand, it is considered important that constant training be provided to the personnel who work in the Day Center in order to give the workers a comprehensive development. Communication is identified as an action that must be worked on by the staff of the Day Center, and with this strengthen the sense of belonging of all the people who work at La Casa de los Abuelos.
