Due to the current demands in the provision of care services, it is increasingly difficult to provide humanized care in the act of caring, especially in public health institutions where there is a great demand for patients, limited resources and management of strict protocols. Under this argument, the present research was developed with the objective of evaluating the perception of the elderly patient in relation to the humanized care provided by the nursing staff of the internal medicine area of the IESS Ambato Hospital, work focused on contributing and improving the quality of care using a quantitative, descriptive and cross-sectional methodology, we worked with a population of 50 older adults to whom the survey of "Perception of humanized nursing care behaviors" (PCHE) 3rd version was applied. With the development of this research, it was possible to define the margin of execution that is provided to the humanized care of the elderly patient of this health entity, finding some data that were related to each other in a partially significant way, such as gender, age and days of hospitalization.
