Objetivo: analisar os motivos da utilização frequente do serviço de urgência pelas pessoas idosas; Método: estudo descritivo qualitativo, com recurso a entrevista semiestruturadas e análise de conteúdo; participantes - 6 (pessoas idosas frágeis e familiares cuidadores); Resultados: constatou-se que a maioria dos motivos que levaram os participantes a recorrer ao serviço de urgência estavam relacionados com períodos de agudização da(s) doença(s) crónica(s) e as razões relacionadas com: a procura de cuidados especializados, referenciação por profissionais de saúde, medo de agravamento da situação de doença e dificuldade na acessibilidade à unidade de saúde. Conclusões: os enfermeiros dos cuidados de saúde primários precisam de apostar mais na vigilância da(s) doenças crónicas(s) e promover a literacia da pessoa idosa e do familiar cuidador para promover o Cuidado-de-SI.]]></p></abstract>
