Introduction: Due to population aging and population age inversion, there was an increase in the interest and structuring of policies that enable the care of elderly people. Therefore, caring for the elderly is challenging and requires knowledge, especially due to basic health needs. Objective: to analyze the strategies used by primary care to promote healthy aging. Methodology: Integrative literature review, in which the collection of articles was carried out between August and September 2021, whose databases were: Latin American and Caribbean Literature in Health Sciences (Lilacs), the Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online (Medline) and the Database in Nursing (BDENF). In this context, the inclusion criteria were as follows: original articles, available in full and free of charge, with publications ranging from 2016 to 2021. With regard to the exclusion criterion, articles that did not include the corpus were chosen from the corpus. proposed theme and those that were duplicated. Results: 07 studies were used for comparative research on the subject. Thus, primary care works to promote health through the assessment and monitoring of social contexts (domestic and family environment), psychological context (mental health and cognition), physical context (NCD, disease prevention and vaccination) and even guidance regarding to the habits of life.
