Abstract

Objective: To identify the characteristics of the Advanced Practice Nursing in health care for the elderly. Methods: Integrative literature review to answer the question: “What are the characteristics of Advanced Practice Nursing in health care for the elderly?”. LILACS, Science Direct, PubMed, Web of Science, CINAHL and Scopus databases were used for the research, carried out in November 2020. Results: After reading and analysis, 17 articles comprised the final sample of this review. Data were analyzed using thematic categories. Conclusion: Advanced Practice Nursing in gerontological care encompasses all levels of complexity and includes the planning of care based on the accurate clinical assessment of the elderly patient, the implementation of health education to improve the quality of life of the elderly and education in health and professional training for geriatric care, as well as the use of theories and care models for care management.
