[Profile of the family caregiver caring for patients with sequels of cerebral vascular accident].

This descriptive study using a qualitative approach aimed to identify who are the family caregivers and to understand how the caregiver is chosen amongst the family members of stroke patients. Data were collected by means of a semi-structured questionnaire applied to ten family caregivers. In addition, these caregivers were observed during the interview.The interviews were recorded, transcribed and analyzed. Most of the caregivers who participated in this study were females, married, partners and daughters, with a mean age of 54 years. The statements demonstrated that the "choice" of taking care is not so much an option but closely related to a feeling of obligation. Besides, this choice is also related to the affective relation established with the patient before the illness.
