Abstract

A two-phase comprehensive evaluation study for the purpose of evaluating lessons learned by and expectations of future retirees and their work colleagues by means of an educational sensitization strategy towards an understanding of retirement, by Aguilera et al., (2013). 20 employees (11 pre-retirees and nine colleagues) from a Mexican hospital participated in 2013. Date was gathered with the SQA-E form. The analysis implied an initial and final naturalist criterion evaluation. None, limited, clear and practical previous knowledge was found as well as personal, learning, political-economical and procedural interests. After the conference, theoretical, practical, and practical-theoretical knowledge was obtained and political-economical, economical-political, personal, preventive, contextual, physical health and no expectations were created. Understanding and empathy by work colleagues were achieved as well as the need to become prepared, plan and have political-economic awareness in all participants. Sensitizing the general public to understand retirement is recommended.
