Resumen
This study aims at investigating the work process of physical therapists from the NASF of a sanitary region of the city of Belo Horizonte. It is a descriptive and quantitative study, using data from a self-applied questionnaire that was answered by 10 professionals from September to October, 2015. Results indicated that most actions were in accordance to the directives regarding elderly health care, although there were some actions that did not comply with NASF directives, which reiterates the need to adjust the way in which the actions of the NASF are carried out, as it is being created. Carrying out actions that contribute to diminish the disabilities, the physical therapist acts with the multiprofessional team and contributes for the assistance of the elder in the primary health care.
