Determine the perception of the self-care capacity in the older adult of the “Hogar Geriatrico Señor de la Ascensión”, 2019. 85 older adults were selected to whom an instrument was applied with the purpose of measuring their level of self-care. Results: Regarding the capacity for self-care in the elderly, it was found that 38.8% present an adequate criterion, while 34.1% present a partially adequate criterion and the remaining 27.1% present an inadequate criterion. Conclusion: The highest percentage indicates adequate self-care in the older adults of the “Hogar Geriatrico Señor de la Ascensión” without failing to notice some type of dependency to achieve good self-care criteria and thus preserve their health at that stage of life.
