Relações de cuidado entre enfermeiros da atenção básica e cuidadores familiares de pessoas com câncer ABSTRACTThis exploratory-descriptive and qualitative study was performed with the objective to identify the care relationships between Family Health Strategy nurses and family caregivers of people with cancer, living in a municipality in Northwestern Paraná state. The interviews were performed in June of 2011, at the subjects' homes and at Basic Health Units, using guiding questions. Data analysis was performed using the content analysis technique, thematic mode, proposed by Bardin. Results showed there is a paradox between the view of the relatives and the nurses, and that difference stimulated us to reconsider if nurses are truly aware of their role towards the studied population. Finally, we realize the need for nurses to recognize their real competencies, as coordinators of the health team and as the ones responsible for the home care, making themselves present in the direct care to individuals with cancer and their families.Descriptors: Family; Caregivers; Home Nursing; Nursing; Neoplasms. RESUMENEstudio exploratorio, descriptivo, cualitativo, objetivando conocer las relaciones de cuidado entre enfermeros de la EstrategiaSalud de la Familia y cuidadores familiares de pacientes de cáncer, en un municipio del noroeste de Paraná. Entrevistas realizadas en junio de 2011, en los domicilios de los sujetos y en las Unidades Básicas de Salud, mediante dos preguntas orientadoras. Para análisis de datos se utilizó el análisis de contenido, modalidad temática, según Bardin. Los resultados expresaron una paradoja entre las concepciones de los familiares y los enfermeros; tal divergencia nos hizo reflexionar acerca de si realmente el enfermero es consciente de su papel ante la población estudiada. Finalmente, percibimos la necesidad de estos profesionales de reconocer sus auténticas competencias, en su calidad de coordinadores del equipo de salud y responsables por el cuidado domiciliario, haciéndose presentes en la atención directa a los individuos con cáncer y sus familias.
