[The impact of difficult situations on caregivers]. / L'impact des situations difficiles sur les soignants.

Caregivers are confronted with disease and death, sometimes regularly. Faced with these difficult situations, the emotions they feel affect every aspect of their lives: physical, intellectual, spiritual and social. It is important to take into account these emotions and to identify the resources which can be offered to caregivers. Solidarity between caregivers and team cohesion are also essential.
