Abstract
The aging of the individual as a result of medical advances and the aging of the population as a result of the compression of morbidity and the expansion of life expectancy, in the context of a lower birth rate, both in developed and developing countries, they determine a new spectrum of need for interventions, in which community commitment plays a preponderant role. The recognition of the heterogeneity of the aging process and the detection of frailty in the age group of the Elderly requires action derived from the community as a whole, as a collective expression of health. This expression determines not only the prevention of disease, disability and dependency, but also a true promotion of health aimed at achieving the desired healthy aging.
