THE HEALTH IMPACTS OF CAREGIVERS OF PATIENTS WITH CANCER TRIGATED BY THE EXERCISE OF CARING
The work relationship of the caregiver of cancer patients - whether professional in the area or family member - can have negative implications on their health. In order to understand the dimension of the complaints and challenges faced by the function, bibliographies from the last ten years were selected, most of which were published in online bases. Through the literature review, it was found that the profile of the caregiver is commonly perceived among women aged around 52 years old. Among the main complaints were emotional, physical and mental overload, in addition to stress and depression. This information suggests that the caregiver needs more monitoring and preparation, provided by government policies and initiatives of the family group itself, so that care work is not a physical and psychological burden.

Abstract:
The work relationship of the caregiver of cancer patients - whether professional in the area or family member - can have negative implications on their health. In order to understand the dimension of the complaints and challenges faced by the function, bibliographies from the last ten years were selected, most of which were published in online bases. Through the literature review, it was found that the profile of the caregiver is commonly perceived among women aged around 52 years old. Among the main complaints were emotional, physical and mental overload, in addition to stress and depression. This information suggests that the caregiver needs more monitoring and preparation, provided by government policies and initiatives of the family group itself, so that care work is not a physical and psychological burden.
