Abstract

Objective

to develop a board game to promote health education carried out by nurses with informal caregivers of the elderly.

Method

methodological research, conducted between February 2020 and April 2021 in two stages: production of the game and content and semantic validation. The content was validated by specialist nurses using the Content Validity Index, and the semantics was validated by informal caregivers of the elderly using the Semantic Concordance Index.

Results

The Id Jog - Caregiver in action was validated with a Content Validity Index of 0.93. After this step, modifications considered relevant for the improvement of the game were made. After that, the game went through a semantic validation with a Semantic Concordance Index of 100%. Id Jog - Caregiver in Action is composed of 47 cards divided into psychosocial, physical and biological care and caregiver self-care, six pawns, one die, an instruction manual, and a board.

Conclusions and implications for practice

The Id Jog-Caregiver in action has proven to be a valid care-educational technology for health education, as it enables exchanges of experiences and strengthens bonds between nurses and caregivers, in addition to creating a support network among caregivers.
