This article shows Gerontology as a rich area and full of gaps to be filled by the disciplines that form it, going beyond the conventional approaches to the elderly client and aiming at finding new Nursing paths as, among other sciences, it is in the process of knowledge building. The study aims at emphasizing the importance of Gerontology in an interdisciplinary context, specially for Nursing, as well as the relevance of the elderly client in the social context. The interdisciplinarity is the Gerontology guiding tool in the search for changes that may sum-up knowledge and efforts in the process of health development regarding the elderly clients and other disciplines, enabling Nursing advancement.Downloads
