摘要：Human aging is a complex and global phenomenon. It is necessary to care for and educate both those who teach (professionals, caregivers) and those who are (self)educated in order to maintain their vitality, functionality and independence, according to their care needs, in their daily life. In this study we aimed to know the scientific productions that work themes related to about how the elderly use learning strategies to learn how to take care of their own health. For this purpose, an Integrative Review of Literature was carried out, consisting of the following steps: identification of the problem or guiding question, establishment of descriptors, temporal cut-off, sampling search in the literature, data collection, analysis of included studies, results and discussion of content synthesis. From the synthesis of the content of the articles, it was possible to carry out the analysis of the productions and to construct a thematic axis as a guide for discussion, considering that, in order to occur learning, it is necessary to value the dialogue, the knowledge, the exchange of experiences and information with the elderly, making it possible to consolidate a process of critical, meaningful and emancipatory teaching, as a way of empowering autonomy, independence for self-care, and self-control of health and maintenance of functional and participatory capacity.
