RESUMO
In recent years, a number of actions have been carried out to develop assistance for caregivers in France. This assistance can be coordinated with the help of social services, which can be difficult for both the elderly person and their caregiver, for psychological reasons. If an adapted and rehabilitated care pathway is not put in place, the caregiver may be exposed to psychosocial risks.

Home support for carers is a cross-cutting theme running through all the areas of focus of the strategy for the integration of care and assistance services. Thanks to this strategy a health care territory has visibility, legibility and accessibility to the respite care and assistance available to family carers provided by local professionals, notably by those in charge of complex situations, the case managers.
