This study was conducted to determine the usability and perceived effectiveness of coping strategies of 36 significant other-caregiver of patients both infected and affected with HIV & AIDS under the care of Pinoy Plus Association Inc (PPAI).    Results showed that generally the respondents belonged to the 20 to 29 years of old group, mostly male, college graduate and siblings; using Jaloweic Coping scale: all the coping styles have a high degree of usability except for emotive coping style which has low degree of usability; confrontive and supportant coping styles were found to have a very high degree of effectiveness; evasive, optimistic, palliative and self-reliant coping styles were found to have a high degree of effectiveness; fatalistic and emotive coping styles were found to have a low degree of effectiveness; there is a high degree of usability of the respondent-significant others' coping strategies and their perceived effectiveness of all the coping strategy in terms of all the coping style except for emotive coping style which has low degree of usability of the respondent-significant others' coping strategies and perceived effectiveness; there is no significant differences between the degrees of usability of the respondent-significant others' coping strategies when grouped according to age except for fatalistic and self-reliant coping strategy; no significant difference between the degrees of usability of the respondent-significant others' coping strategies when grouped according to gender and relationship to patient; and there are significant differences between the degrees of usability of the respondent-significant others' coping strategies as to the following coping strategies: confrontive, evasive, optimistic, and supportive when grouped according to gender and no significant differences for the rest of the coping strategies; there is no significant differences between the degrees of perceived effectiveness of each coping strategy when grouped according to age except for evasive coping strategy; no significant differences between the degrees of perceived effectiveness of each coping strategy when grouped according to gender except for evasive and emotive coping strategies; no significant strategies between degrees of perceived effectiveness of each coping strategy when grouped according to highest educational attainment; no significant differences between the degrees of perceived effectiveness of each coping strategy when grouped according to relationship to patient except for fatalistic coping strategy; and there is a significant relationship between the degrees of usability of the respondent-significant other's coping strategies and their perceived effectiveness.  It is recommended that the: significant other-caregiver of patient both infected and affected by HIV and AIDS undergo Training Program for Significant Other-Caregiver (the output of this study) to improve the way/s they cope or handle situation/s while taking care of their patient and help them sustain their strengths in relation to their use of the different coping strategies; patients of significant others to convince and help their significant other-caregivers to involve themselves in the Training Program for significant Other-Caregivers; nurses to help the significant other-caregivers to become part of Training Program for significant Other-Caregivers thus making their collaboration more effective in caring for the patient; hospital administrators to use the output of this study which is a training Program for the Significant Other-Caregivers, to elevate the standards of care in congruence to positive coping and reduction of stress; and future researchers to use this study as their resource material and basis for future researchers.
