This study utilized a cross-sectional quantitative research design to determine the psychological resilience of healthcare workers assigned in the non-hospital based COVID-19 Isolation Facilities in Zamboanga City. The study utilized a total count sampling design. Healthcare workers and front-liners assigned at the isolation facility for at least 1 month were selected to participate in the study. Fifty-three healthcare workers and front liners voluntarily answered the research questionnaire and were included in the study as a respondent. The psychological resilience of the respondents was measured using questionnaires adapted from different authors, which include The Brief Resilience Scale (BRS) by Bozdag et al. (2020), the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS) developed by Zimet et al. (1988). Satisfaction with life scale (SWLS) by Diener et al. (1985) and Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) by Watson et al. (1988). Results showed no significance on the level of resilience among different facilities. The results of the study have shown that most of the respondents, 44 out of 53 (83.01%), have normal resiliency during the pandemic. This shows that the respondents, without difficulty, can overcome the hardship with ease. The result of the study can be used to improve and be integrated into the government programs, especially to the healthcare institution, and promote good mental health among healthcare workers and front liners.
