Abstract
Objective: to describe the perspectives of nurses, community health agents and family caregivers who are part of health education practices on responsibilities for the care of the dependent elderly. Method: qualitative, descriptive and exploratory study, conducted in 2016 with two nurses, eight community health agents and six family caregivers linked to two family health strategies, based on the development of educational practices in health. Data analysis was performed according to the technique of the triadic humanist-existential-personalist configuration. Results: each person involved in the care of the elderly has differentiated, singular and complementary responsibilities. For professionals, their actions developed are not being implemented in practice and/or having an expected positive effect, being influenced by cultural, value and structural issues. Conclusion: the responsibilities for the care of the elderly are everyone's and need to be shared among the family, health professionals, the community and the State.
