Sample defined by convenience and separated in two groups. Intervention Group (IG): 10 elderly who participated in a multisensory stimulation program (PEM). Consisted on 24 sessions of 30 minutes, 2 times a week, during 3 months, in a multisensory room. Control Group (CG): 10 participants who did not participate in PEM After 3 months program, sample was re-evaluated. Data analysis: descriptive statistics, non-parametric tests and Content Analysis.
