The aim of this study is to determine the existence of a characteristic personality profile of family carers of people with dementia. The correct knowledge and use of psychological variables which affect the carer, helps to promote appropriate actions to mitigate the impact of care and improve the carer’s quality of life and likewise the one of the person cared for. The study population consists of 69 family carers of people with dementia, members of various associations and care centers. The results allow us to identify a characteristic personality profile for these carers and it reveals a specific psychological working in this sample, although we cannot directly relate it with the tasks of caring for people with this disease, this profile gives us very relevant information to pay more attention to the needs of this group.

Spain is currently in the process of reform of university curricula to meet the demands of the European Higher Education Area. In this context, the question remains the professional profile professionals have developed as the teacher of speech and hearing itinerant schools, noting those factors could hinder the development of a role tailored to the curricular and collaborative proposals that were attempted promote the Organic Law on the Education System of the nineties (LOGSE). The new college plans do not consider this title, having disappeared from academic contexts, although their professional profile continues in schools. It is therefore the time to face the type of training (path undergraduate or graduate) to train these professionals, having the opportunity to learn from the errors found in the previous figure and enhanced quality educational work in schools that feed into inclusiveness.

In a global approach to the attention of carers of older people with dementia living at the elder’s home, it is essential to promote their personal, social and emotional wellbeing as well as provide them with tools that improve their quality of life. With this goal we present the experience of CDD and Residencia de Horta, Barcelona. A documentary review of the file was made, covering the period between 2004 and 2010 to define the sample. For the analysis of the semistructured admission interviews, monitoring and mentoring, a research was made through the daily records. Other strategies used were fulfilment questionnaires as well as the validated questionnaire of caregiver’s burden (Zarit and Zarit, 1982). Likewise, there was a systematic active observation of the GAM group. The interviews were made to the caregivers who attended the GAM. It is proven that actions of prevention and monitoring as well as psycho-educational training designed for carers promotes the user’s staying at their home, improves their quality of life and their caregiver’s.
