- Abstract
To know the perception of home caregivers about the relationship between work and their health. Exploratory study with qualitative methodology involving twenty-three caregivers from a municipality in the interior of Minas Gerais. Thematic content analysis guided the treatment of semi-structured interviews. Two thematic categories were built: "Work overload" and "Support network". Care is performed, in most cases, by women. The family caregiver reported a higher burden than the hired caregiver. The physical, psychological and emotional dimensions of work overload were addressed by the participants and related to the absence of leisure, recreation and self-care activities. Religious groups, family members and the basic health unit were referred to as a support network. Primary care health teams can play a strategic role in promoting the health of this worker and in strengthening support networks.
