ABSTRACT

An exploratory descriptive and quantitative study aimed at identifying and describing the activity of relatives in charge of caring at home for people incapacitated by cerebral vascular accident. The sample was comprised of 35 family caregivers, most of them women, wives or daughters. The care given is directly related to the degree of incapacity of the person who is being cared for. The orientation received indicated no commitment of professionals for the continuity of the care. The caregivers learn in daily practice how to care, based on observation and assistance to nursing during the internment period. The difficulties are related to physical effort, to lack of information and fear, to the embarassment and the shame of handling someone else's body. The study focuses on the need for preparation for hospital discharge, emphasizes the family as a concrete space for care; and observed an increase in life expectancy.

ABSTRACT

The main objective of the physical-motor rehabilitation process is to help people with physical deficiency adapt to their new condition of life. This paper aims to describe the activities developed by the rehabilitation nurse in a unit for patients undergoing physical-motor rehabilitation and to detail his/her importance for the rehabilitation team. Among the most important activities carried out are the maintenance of the patient's physiological needs, which the nursing staff executes, orients, demonstrates and supervises, and the reevaluation of the conditions of such patients to care for themselves. The nurse also acts in the prevention of possible complications that could occur given the unique susceptibility of this clientele.
