The interest in studying a specific population of centenarians who lives in the country’s interior region (PT100-BI) emerged during the first Portuguese systematic study about centenarians (PT100 Oporto Centenarian Study).
This region of Portugal is predominantly rural and is one of the regions with the largest number of aged people.
The aim of this study is to provide information on the centenarians who live in the Beira Interior region, specifically in terms of their health status and the health services they use.
A total of 101 centenarians (mean age: 101.1 years; SD = 1.5 years), 14 males and 87 females, were considered.
Most centenarians lived in the community, and 47.6% lived in nursing homes.
Nearly half (47.5%) presented cognitive functioning without deficits.
A noteworthy percentage presented conditioned mobility and sensory problems.
The most common self-reported diseases include urinary incontinence (31.7%), high blood pressure (23.8%), and heart conditions (19.8%).
Despite these health and functional characteristics, formal support services and technical assistance were found to be scarcely used.
Further research is needed to understand how the role of contextual variables and the countryside environment contribute to the centenarians’ adaptation to advanced longevity.
