Abstract
Individuals with dysarthria experience speech impairment, which can diminish their Quality of Life (QOL). Given that effective communication is crucial for social interaction, speech issues may impact life satisfaction. While there is extensive research on the QOL of individuals with dysarthria, there is limited investigation into the QOL and level of stress of their caregivers.
This study aimed to compare the QOL and level of stress in caregivers of dysarthria pre and post communication trainings and see effectiveness of trainings.
Trainings helped in reduction of stress and improvement in quality of life of caregivers. Communicative partner trainings are essential to improve quality of life in caregivers of patients with dysarthria and reducing stress in them.
