title: [Relationship-based care in geriatrics].
abstract: If relationship-based care needs to be defended and considered as part of the patient's overall care, in geriatrics it is still too often placed at the opposite end of the spectrum to technical care. Two underlying questions emerge, the first being on the level of the elderly person and the risks of caregivers projecting themselves onto the latter, the second concerns more the caregiver and what can stand in the way in his/her relationship with the elderly person.
