Abstract: Today in Italy the issue of seniority seems to become increasingly central in the medical-care but many times we forget the fact that older people are people with needs and desires of important psychological and social significance. Dementias and physical problems that lead to non-self-sufficiency not enough to explain the lack of attention that sometimes arises with intimacy and relationships of people in nursing homes (RSA). My concept was born from the work carried out at a large RSA Bergamo. I have touched on subjects such as: organizational and institutional dimension, the mink around the illness and treatment, the elderly, animation, communication, family. I also proposed a practical model for identifying the needs / desires of the elderly, showing a practical example of qualitative research on an interview.

Abstract: The age and being old are commonly associated with the image of the man who walks or reached the end of his life. In fact, today, improving the quality of living conditions and hygiene, the evolution of medical disciplines and scientific ones, allowed to significantly extend the life prospects, turning what was the final phase of existence, in often a period of nearly twenty years' duration. In this period, the action of changes in status or social behaviors and the onset of disease, could make the man a "person without a personality." The attitude of society in respect of the 'old age' than in the past has, in recent decades, changed, altering the ratio of individuals with their own traditions and culture of belonging, leaving an empty man "identity." The emergence of New Age practices, so fashionable gathered legions of followers, is the expression of the need to bridge this gap, finding ancestral signs of their existence. Man, post-modern view of the whole, however, is committed in the search for deep roots, so remote as to escape, at times, even the memory of the living. Old age in today is very different from that of the past and should therefore be divided into two distinct periods, that of "seniority" in which man is an active and present in the community of belonging, and that of the 'advanced old age "in which, Because of the onset of illness or disabling event, the person is deprived of the opportunity to take active roles in society. In the latter condition and especially if in need of care and no longer self-sufficient, the old is removed from having to be the guardian of experiences and values, because it no longer considered capable of transmitting and teach their knowledge and converted so subject to 'social' to 'object' of social concern.

Abstract: The work is based on the analysis of issues related to education rducative the elderly. It begins with the description of the physical decline and then drops to the psychological and relational. The old "geek" is a consolidated reality of our times, and to make sure that questo non avvenga è necessario mettere in luce gli aspetti positivi della vecchiaia; essere vecchi non significa aver raggiunto il termine della vita, al contrario, la terza età se affrontata con l'animo giusto può tramutarsi in una fase produttiva e socializzata della vita, diventando esempio anche per i giovani. Il tempo libero degli anziani può essere impiegato in attività ludico-creative e tra queste oggi stanno prendendo piede le UTE (Università della terza età). L'ultima parte della tesi descrive l'esperienza vissuta dalla sottoscritta (in chiave socio-politica e demografica) nell'"Aula de Mayores" presso l'Università di Huelva (Andalucia-Espana) in cui ha svolto il presente lavoro grazie al progetto Erasmus.
