Resumen

• This book offers a complete, up-to-date and in-depth view of the aspects involved in good care of old adults living in institutions. It results from the I International Congress on Good Treatment of the Elderly in Institutions held in June 2021. This is not only a manual that describes and provides data on what mistreatment and good care are in the institutionalized care, furthermore, it allows the reader to find a new framework for understanding, evaluation, and intervention of the older adults in Institutions. Mistreatment has been associated with beating or visible wounds, but most times mistreatment is something more subtle, even invisible, and requires a special vision to be able to detect it. The COVID-19 health crisis has decisively affected to the old adult population living in institutions, the different chapters of this book put an effort into promoting a way of doing things differently, centering the care in the old people´s dignity, emotions, and their cognitive, social, and spiritual world. Authors from different disciplines and countries have participated: psychologists, doctors, anthropologists..., offering to the reader ways of action toward awareness, evaluation, prevention, and intervention for a good care in the Institutions.
