Abstract

Informal caregivers, often family members, of individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia face various challenges and burdens that pose significant psychological repercussions on their mental well-being. This study seeks to evaluate the resilience levels of informal caregivers of patients with schizophrenia in Region VI, Western Visayas, Philippines. Additionally, this examines the relationship between resilience and the informal caregivers’ demographics, such as age, sex, and educational attainment. A quantitative research approach was adopted, specifically utilizing a descriptive-correlational method to evaluate the resilience levels among these caregivers and their correlation to demographic variables. Findings reveal that no statistical differences were observed, indicating that resilience levels remained at a stable, normal level across all demographic groups. These findings may be significant for clinical practice and research, underscoring the necessity of developing psychological programs aimed at bolstering resilience to enhance the overall well-being of family members caring for patients with schizophrenia, particularly in the Western Visayas region. Mental health practitioners may use this study to guide the implementation of psychological and psychiatric interventions that will assist informal caregivers in cultivating resilient coping strategies to prevent the onset of mental health concerns.
