Abstract
The suffering of caregivers is often observed in haematology and oncology teams. A major Programme Hospitalier de Recherche Clinique was conducted in the north-west of France. Every oncology and haematology ward was contacted. On 64 wards we got 574 questionnaires within 53 different centres. Four major causes of aetiology have been identified, linked to the caregiver, to the speciality of oncohaematology, to the workload and to the organisation and team management. Our group (Afsos) has shown a relationship between participative management and quality of life at work of caregivers. This participative management is now mandatory in France for teams caring for palliative patients (measure 13a of HAS accreditation visit). The perspectives of the results are discussed.
