    This study analyzed caregiver burden among individuals with disabilities at the Loma Health Center in Quito, aiming to identify the levels of physical, emotional, social, and economic burden they face. The Zarit Burden Interview was administered to 24 caregivers using a quantitative, descriptive, and cross-sectional approach. Data were processed using SPSS software, employing descriptive statistical analysis and pairedsamples t-tests. The results showed that most caregivers scored above 47, indicating the presence of mild to severe burden. The most affected factors were emotional exhaustion, loss of personal time, physical strain, and social isolation. Economic difficulties and feelings of sole responsibility for the family member were also observed. The most significant differences were found in the emotional, social, and economic dimensions, confirming that burden manifests primarily through stress, fatigue, and a loss of personal control. In conclusion, it can be said that caregivers of people with disabilities at the Loma de Quito Health Center require psychological support, professional guidance, and respite care to reduce the impact of caregiving on their health and well-being. These findings underscore the importance of strengthening family support programs and public policies that recognize and support the work of caregivers as an essential component of the comprehensive healthcare system.
