This work aims to know the fundamentals that led to the opening of a business for the elderly and to identify the challenges faced by nurses, making it possible to discuss the topic in an academic context and reflect on the challenges faced by entrepreneurial nurses in opening a business for the elderly. Eight entrepreneur nurses from São Paulo (Brazil) were interviewed. As an instrument, an exploratory-descriptive interview was conducted with a qualitative analysis of the data. Regarding the fundamentals, the categories “autonomous work / being an entrepreneur†and “autonomy in the care of the elderly / job satisfaction†are thematically presented. The challenges faced for this process had as a thematic category: “professional fulfillment versus quality of care for institutionalized elderly peopleâ€; "unpreparedness for the business management" and "legislation requirements and financial resources for the business". |
