Key words:

primary caregiver, professionalization, health team.

Changes in epidemiology, as well as the increase in the population over 60 years of age, make in necessary for the figure of the caregiver to exist more constantly. The caregiver is a figure that mayor may not be from within the family, but who requires recognition and professionalization in a society where little is taken into account.
