Objective: to rehabilitate older adults in the Medical Office, through the practice of physical exercises, using implements made of disposable and disused materials.
Method: a descriptive, cross-sectional, innovative study was carried out. The universe was constituted by the 234 older adults of the 26th clinic of Pinar del Rio and the sample by the 33 selected by intentional sampling taking into account the inclusion and exclusion criteria.
Results: the most frequent chronic diseases in older adults were arterial hypertension and diabetes, while dyslipoproteinemias and arthritis were the ones with the best response to geriatric rehabilitation. All the adults were satisfied with the benefits of rehabilitation. None were hospitalized, nor did any death occur. 100 % of the patients were satisfied with the rehabilitation. 336,55 cup were saved per unit of instruments made; total of 1191,5 cup and to the country, per benefited patient 32 053,44 cup per month, total 194 336,64 cup in the studied period.
