Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic condition that cannot be cured and can lead to complications, necessitating self-care. Correct self-care can improve the sufferer’s capacity to fulfill life’s demands independently, allowing them to control their illness and avoid complications. The purpose of this study was to examine how diabetes mellitus patients practice self-care. It employs a cross-sectional method by involving 71 respondents, using the SDSCA and the DMSES as instruments. The data were then analyzed by chi-square test. According to the findings, most of the patients had suffered from DM for more than 5 years with low self-efficacy and inadequate self-care behavior. Furthermore, the only self-care components that was considered good was medicine consumption behavior. The findings also indicate that the duration of DM did not predict self-care behavior. Diabetes patients should practice more self-care in order to enhance their health and avoid further complications.
