    Una mirada profunda a las principales causas del abandono a la persona mayor en colombia
    (2024) Casiani Monroy, Yineth Yurani; Cortes Muñoz, Ángela Del Mar; Góngora Castro, Lorena; Samboni Vallejo, Adriana
    The abandonment of older adults in Colombia is a problem that seriously affects their well-being, especially in vulnerable communities where factors such as family disintegration, poverty and lack of institutional care increase their precariousness. This phenomenon impacts not only the physical, but also the emotional and social sphere, weakening their quality of life and deepening their exclusión. Through a hermeneutic review of thirty-four qualitative studies, patterns in family, economic and social dynamics that perpetuase this problem were identified, integrating multiple perspectives for a comprehensive visión. Therefore, the results show that power dynamics in the family nucleus, combined with economic pressures, are determining factors in abandonment decisions, which limits access to support networks, weakens the selfesteem and capabilities of older adults and perpetuates a cycle of social exclusión that increases the risk of depression and cognitive decline. This abandonment transcends physical neglect, also being reflected in the los of opportunities to build meaningful bonds, affecting their quality of life. It is worth mentioning that the findings highlight the urgent need to implement strategies that promote socialization, strengthen self-esteem and encourage the active participation of this population. Addressing this problem in a comprehensive manner requires strengthening support networks, developing inclusive public policies and fostering strong intergenerational relationships, which is essential to break the cycle of isolation, improve the emotional and social quality of life of the elderly, and guarantee their full integration into society.
