Abstract

The study objective was to assess the family
structure, functioning and development based on the
emergence of a chronic condition. Qualitative study,
developed in two families that were monitored through a
community service project. The Calgary Model of Family
Assessment was applied, which proposes the use of
three analysis categories: structural, developmental and
functional, besides the genogram and ecomap. One family
is nuclear and the other consists of a single individual.
Through the application of the model, the differences in
family support for the chronic condition and the coping
of the individual without family could be identified.
Aging poses challenges that need to be experienced
and, for elderly people living along, these confrontations
are aggravated by the fact that they are deprived of any
company.
