Faced with an ageing population, support for family carers at home has become a major public health challenge for European countries. With the aim of improving the quality of life of these home carers, the AViQ (Walloon Agency for Quality of Life), the Department of Psychology of the University of Liege, the ARS (Regional Health Agency) of the Hauts de France and the Regional Council of the Nord, have joined forces around the AP-Réseau Service (AP-Service Network) project. The objectives? Better equip the support and respite centres in the Hauts de France and the care and home help services in Wallonia to support carers of people suffering from major cognitive disorders. Create a network for cross-border exchanges between care professionals. This programme has also attracted backing from a number of associated partners. An evaluation is planned at the end of the programme. Since the beginning of the project, 136 Franco-Belgian professionals have been trained to detect carers suffering from personal exhaustion and to provide individualised support for carers. These trained professionals in turn provide training in "detection" to other home help professionals on their territory, adding up to 176 people trained in detection. Individualised coaching has also begun: 42 carers have started to benefit from follow-up. The sessions are conducted by a specifically trained psychologist from either a respite centre for the Hauts de France or a memory clinic or a hospital service for Wallonia. These sessions allow the carer to better understand their loved one's neurodegenerative disorder and better cope with the day-to-day difficulties. A brochure "Aide aux aidants: Vivre sereinement l'accompagnement d'un proche/Help for carers: supporting a loved one with peace of mind" has been put together in Wallonia and in the Hauts de France. On 21 November 2017, the 4th interprofessional meeting brought together 28 Franco-Belgian professionals. The first 3 meetings highlighted 3 working themes: support for the carer, awareness-raising among the general public and awareness-raising of the family carer. During this last event, common tools were proposed: video clips for the general public, an awareness-raising folder and a standardised interview grid accompanied by the "carer's wheel" earmarked for cross-border professionals to more effectively identify the needs of carers and provide appropriate responses.
