Abstract

Informal caregivers don't receive any kind of clinical assistance, especially the female population who are mainly the ones who deliver the cares. They forget their own cares and privacy, deteriorating their emotional health and the sexual aspects, even being the most, singles or divorced because of the roll they assume.
