Abstract:

Anchored on the Ecological Systems Theory by Urie Bronfenbrenner, this study determined the Sustaining Support of the Care Providers for Persons with Disability (PWD) of the Suporta sa mga Batang may Kapansanan, Inc. (SBKI) in Cadlan, Pili, Camarines Sur for 2018. It sought to answer the following questions: 1.) What are the tasks being done by care providers in a Home Program? 2.) What is the level of competency of the care providers in performing the tasks? 3.) What are the appropriate assistive devices used for Home Program? 4.) What is the care providers’ perception of the awareness of their community towards their PWD child? The respondents of this study were 70 primary care providers of the PWD as registered clients of SBKI. Findings revealed that food preparation, good grooming, and tutorial were the common tasks performed by care providers. Their competency in performing tasks was slated at 3.47, or the highest level. The assistive devices that care providers use are only those common and can be acquired from other agencies in charity. Further, care providers strongly agree on community awareness towards their PWD children. An intervention plan was proposed to sustain the caregivers’ support for the PWD.
