    The person who has turned 65 years of age is considered an older adult, many are seen as fragile people who need to be under the care and protection of a family member, in several cases they have been rejected at home, being physically and psychologically abused, suffering abuse by their relatives, neglect, neglect, discrimination, stigmatization, resulting in infringement of their rights. The family is considered as the fundamental pillar for the eldest adult during the aging process, providing affection, support and companionship, as well as meeting their needs and requirements. Several authors define exclusion as a social phenomenon that has to do with the segregation, elimination and isolation of a person from a social group, a problem of which older adults are victims. There are several factors that affect exclusion such as age, educational level, religion and disability, factors that are taken into account so that a person can belong to certain social groups. The social exclusion of the eldest adult is a latent problem in society, because while it is true this vulnerable group tends to feel alone in the absence of visits from his family or a person who takes care of his care resulting in his isolation. This research aims to determine the prevalence of the social exclusion of the elderly in rural areas of the canton Pelileo, for which the mixed methodology from a qualitative and quantitative approach was used through the application of surveys and interviews aimed at older adults in rural areas of the canton Pelileo, home visits were made for the implementation of the instruments, with the respective biosecurity measures.
