Резюме: | Being the caregiver of a person with a disability is a significant challenge that entails a great deal of responsibility, involving various tasks and important decision-making on behalf of the dependent individual. Moreover, in most cases, those who assume this role are direct family members of the person with a disability, becoming informal caregivers who, lacking prior training in the field of disability, may experience levels of burden that could eventually lead to significant repercussions on their physical and emotional well-being. For this reason, the present study sought to determine the basic profile of caregivers, identify the levels of burden by employing the Zarit scale and a structured interview, and analyze the repercussions of this burden on the caregivers' lifestyles through the application of deductive methodology with a mixed qualitative/quantitative approach and a descriptive cross-sectional research design. Consequently, once all the proposed research tools were applied, relevant results were obtained regarding the level of burden experienced by caregivers, concerns related to the future of their family members, and feelings of distress during times of crisis. |
