Total Enumeration has been used to select participants in conducting the study. Statistical tools such as, Percentage, Mean, and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) were employed. Results showed that majority of the respondents were 45 years old and above, high school graduates, married, with 1-3 number of trainings attended, and capable of serving the community for over ten years. Findings revealed that BHWs were competent in dealing and handling the health concerns of the community and showed that the trainings they have attended were effective. However, Barangay officials’ allotment of financial resources for BHW’s trainings and seminars was recommended so that they could properly deliver the healthcare services to their constituents.The relationship between the demographic profile and the competence of barangay health workers, as well as the effect of trainings, was discovered to be significant. Therefore, the hypothesis formulated was rejected. On the other hand, for the second hypothesis, the findings revealed that the relationship between the Competence of Barangay Health Workers and the Effect of Trainings is significant and the hypothesis formulated is also rejected.
