This paper aims the humanized attention to people who have the Syndrome and live in São Miguel, in a try of identifying early this individuals and improve the treatment and monitoring, carried out by Compulsive Accumulator Support Group, which integrates many services of the region. For 11 accumulators that were monitored, between February and August 2015, the preponderance was of garbage hoardings (80%), female sex (70%) and elderly (70% older than 60). Therefore, it can be stated that these data is not different from what is found in bibliography about this topic. Based on these initial data, programs of shelter to this part of the population and the preparation for servants to recognize and assist these patients can be better made.
