In Case Management are identified the characteristics that involve elderly and their families by providing adequate planning to meet their needs. Case studies of three subjects were prepared containing relevant information to the preparation of action plans that have been divided into categories. The actions aim to promote quality of life of the aged, as well as of their families and caregivers. The work highlighted the possibility and need of insertion of the method to the Gerontologist performance.
