• Abstract:

  This article aims to propose and articulate training for the Nursing professional in Forensic Sciences for a better confrontation of violence in the Family Health Strategy (ESF) against the elderly. In this sense, how can the professional contribute to the confrontation of violence against the elderly? Therefore, with the training, the professional will feel more secure in the identification, approach, notification, collection of traces, prevention, reception and restoration of health problems, a consequence suffered during violence. The specific objectives are to clarify the forensic technical skills of the Nursing professional in the detection of violence against the elderly and to employ the importance of using the Notification of Violence by the professional, because in addition to not being offered at graduation, they do not feel safe in the approach. At this moment of a pandemic, it is believed that the Nurse, with training, will be able to contribute in a qualified way to minimize violence and provide holistic and humanized care.
