“…Dentre os achados, a feminização do cuidado se destacou como um ponto importante. Ao longo dos anos, culturalmente e socialmente, as mulheres são impostas no papel de cuidadoras, tanto no seu âmbito familiar quanto no institucional, onde o homem é responsável pelas atividades fora de casa, o provedor do lar, e a mulher às atividades domésticas (LIMA et al, 2016;ZENG et al, 2019;MELO et al, 2022).…”

Objective: To characterize caregivers of institutionalized elderly people in terms of sociodemographic, health, employment profile and common mental suffering. Method: Cross-sectional study carried out with caregivers of institutionalized residents in cities in Southeast Goiás, from September to December 2021. Results: 14 caregivers participated in the study, the majority of whom were female (92.9%), at least 24 years old and maximum age of 56 years (average of 37.93 years), time working as a caregiver, up to 1 year (42.9%). Regarding common mental disorder (CMD), there was positive screening for CMD in six caregivers (42.9%). The questions that scored the most in the positive screening scores for CMD were: “gets scared easily” and “feels nervous, tense or worried” (8.43%). Suicidal ideation was revealed in 2 caregivers (14%), who were already being monitored. Conclusion: It is concluded that the majority of women play the role of caregiver, with a length of service of up to five years in the LTCFs investigated. The prevalence of positive screening for CMD was almost half of the caregivers.

To care involves assistance and protection for well-being, but imbalances, such as neglect, deteriorate the quality of care. From this perspective, caregivers for the elderly -formal and informal -face significant challenges, which, in addition to involving resignation and commitment, can generate changes in lifestyle, resulting in overload for these professionals. 2. Goal: Report the experience of medical students regarding the relationship between the caregiver and the bedridden patient, identifying the impacts and challenges of this relationship. 3. Experience Report: Fourth period medical students participated in inclusive work, aimed at building a Unique Therapeutic Project (PTS). Through home visits, integration with the responsible health unit, through meetings, and the construction of intervention plans, the students sought to understand the family context, identify their needs and propose improvements, based on the uniqueness of that scenario: the patient, a bedridden lady, whose son, an equally elderly man, was her caregiver. 4. Reflection on the experience: Participating in this project provided a deeper understanding of the importance of PTS, combined with routine home visits, in promoting reception and care. However, in addition to looking at this tool, the activity in question highlighted the relationship between patient and caregiver, allowing the understanding that its imbalance compromises the quality of life of both subjects. 5. Conclusion: Home visits emerge as a sine qua non tool for medical training, given that it encourages students to adopt behaviors consistent with medicine: active listening, acceptance, empathy and respect. Furthermore, the PTS, as a whole, contributes to the sedimentation of these attributes, as it transforms the student, an observer and passive, into a central and active subject, capable of understanding the individuality of each family nucleus and, consequently, promoting guidance and adequate care.
