BATTHYANY, Karina; GENTA, Natalia e PERROTTA, Valentina. The expert discourse in eldercare: a gender analysis. Rev. Cienc. Soc. [online]. 2014, vol.27, n.34, pp.71-92. ISSN 0797-5538.
This article presents the keys to quality care for older people from gender perspective. It is based on the great influence of the expert discourse on the ideal ways of care in social representations and decisions of individuals, families, and public policy. This article addresses the dimensions of expert discourse related to the components of quality care, the role of families in these care and their limits, the role of women and the qualities necessary to provide quality care. The discourse presents aspects that reinforce gender stereotypes and others that allow a transformation of the roles assigned from a more equitable distribution of care
