Abstract
Introduction: Alzheimer is the most common form of dementia and one of the first causes of disability. Objective: To describe if in patients with Alzheimer’s disease the family accompaniment, compared to the abandonment, slows the evolution of this disease. Methodology: Integrative review. Selected articles from the last five years, in English, Spanish and Portuguese, available in the PubMed, EBSCO HOST, Scielo, Clinicalkey, Google academic databases, using the terms MeSH and DeCS: Alzheimer, Continuity of Patient Care, family, Psychosocial Support Systems, along with Boolean operators “AND” and “OR”. A critical reading was made with the STROBE and AMSTAR scales, and the level of evidence and degree of recommendation were classified. Results: The daily life of the caregiver shows physical and psychological overload that leads to giving up the care of adults suffering from Alzheimer. Conclusion: A stable support network ensures better care and education that slows the disease.
