RESUMO
Caring for others means being confronted with situations that arouse emotions. To provide the right care, the caregiver must be able to manage them, whether they are positive or negative. To support caregivers, the health executive plays a fundamental role and must be able to propose actions to facilitate the management of emotions within the team as well as towards patients and their relatives.

Spinal pathology is a major public health problem. It is sometimes referred to as the "disease of the century" due to the increasing number of people affected. It can be low back pain or neck pain, but whatever the mechanism and the age of the patient, its consequences on the quality of life are undeniable. In the case of scoliosis, which can cause an alteration in body image in young patients, treatment requires, in addition to possible surgery, long-term support.

The nurse - nursing assistant pair expresses all its know-how in the care of patients operated on a spine. Supporting the return to autonomy is a priority, especially for young patients who have undergone scoliosis surgery.

Particular vigilance is deployed to identify possible complications related to the operation, some of which are specific to scoliosis. The management of postoperative pain is also at the heart of the care.

At the neuro-vascular emergencies unit at the Pitié-Salpêtrière (AP-HP,Paris), a population that is mostly elderly and dependent is cared for daily by caregivers. With an average age of stroke of 74 years, these patients regularly suffer from neuropathic pain in post-stroke situations. Caregivers are very vigilant in preventing pain induced during care, particularly during mobilization, and are developing holistic pain management that includes non-drug approaches.
