Abstract

The goal was to implement healthy actions that help prevent chronic non-communicable diseases in people aged 65 to 74 years, in the period December 2021 - March 2022. The study was descriptive, correlational, before-after, cross-sectional, with a mixed approach. The population after the application of the inclusion and exclusion criteria was 105 people, to whom a pre-test was applied for data collection, which resulted in the population not reaching the required learning on the subject of study. For which an educational program was developed and executed, related to the subject and the needs of the population, at the end of the educational interventions, a post test was applied where favorable results were obtained since the population already mastered the required learning, on the chronic non-communicable diseases and how to prevent them, improving their eating habits, promoting physical activity and avoiding the consumption of tobacco and alcohol. It is essential to know the age and level of education at the time of developing any educational program so that the information adequately reaches the established population.
