Cuidar entre el miedo, la responsabilidad y la soledad durante la Covid-19: reflexiones sobre las experiencias psicosociales de mujeres cuidadoras de familiares en situación de dependencia

Abstract

 ABSTRACT The COVID-19 pandemic has revealed, more vehemently than ever, the capital-life conflicts in our socio-economic model: The lack of elderly’s rights protection in long-term nursing homes, the precarious conditions of the health care system, the feminization of jobs that provide intensive and face to face care, as well as the unsustainability of work-family conflict. Although it seems that caring is more valued than ever, the difficulties faced by women caregivers of dependent relatives still remain hidden. The responsibility transfer to them means they must face an unknown disease in solitude with less support than ever before. We will reflect on what extent the social organization of care has provided the conditions that enable women to continue caring of dependent relatives in the COVID-19 even though the psychosocial consequences. Key words: COVID-19, caregivers, gender, psychosocial health, social organization of care. RESUMEN La pandemia por la enfermedad COVID-19 ha puesto de manifiesto, con mayor vehemencia que nunca, los conflictos entre el capital y la vida en nuestro modelo socio-económico: La desprotección de derechos de las personas mayores en residencias, las condiciones precarias del sistema de salud, la feminización de los puestos sanitarios que proveen los cuidados directos e intensivos así como la insostenibilidad de conciliar los cuidados y el trabajo inserto en el mercado. Aunque pareciera que los cuidados se valoran más, las dificultades que afrontan las mujeres cuidadoras de familiares en situación de dependencia siguen permaneciendo ocultas. La responsabilidad delegada en ellas les supone hacer frente a una enfermedad desconocida en mayor soledad y con menos apoyos que nunca. Reflexionaremos sobre cómo la organización social de los cuidados ha supuesto las condiciones de posibilidad para que las mujeres sigan asumiendo los cuidados en el actual contexto de emergencia y sufriendo las consecuencias psicosociales relacionadas. Palabras clave: COVID-19, cuidadoras, género, salud psicosocial, organización social de los cuidados.
