Abstract

The objective of this study was to learn how oncogeriatric patients perceive family functionality. It is a descriptive-exploratory study, of a
qualitative nature, developed with 21 elderly people. Data were collected from October to December 2016 using the APGAR Family Scale and semistructured
interviews performed at an oncology outpatient clinic. The interviews were transcribed in full and submitted to content analysis in the
thematic modality. The results show that the majority of the elderly perceive a good family functionality, even referring the disease has promoted
approximation between the members. Some elderly, however, feel dissatisfied with the time shared with the family, with the need to receive
care and with the authoritative behavior of some relatives regarding the treatment. Health professionals should recognize and value the family
relationships of oncogeriatric patients, since these directly affect the proposed therapeutics and coping with the disease.
