The vast majority of disabled people live at home for a long time and are cared for by close relatives, while the family caregivers who cover the daily care are often under a lot of stress in terms of health, finances, relationships, etc. In this study, taking family caregivers of disabled people as the research object, more than 500 family caregivers of disabled people from six cities and counties were investigated by questionnaire, and factor analysis was used to explore the life satisfaction and its influencing factors of family caregivers of disabled people. Through the analysis, it is found that the life satisfaction of family caregivers of disabilities is generally low, and its influencing factors are ranked in order of importance: care pressure, future expectations, interpersonal communication, social support, and social integration. Therefore, China still needs to introduce more high-level social policies and take corresponding service measures from the perspective of family caregivers to effectively improve the respect and protection of the rights and interests of persons with disabilities and their families.
