Abstract/Description
-
Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic illness which provides numerous and varied self-care challenges to those individuals seeking to avoid or delay complications. The purpose of this study is to determine the self-care agency, as defined by Orem, of sample of 100 adults diagnosed with non-insulin dependant diabetes mellitus. Self-care agency was measured by the Self-As-Carer Inventory, a 40-item questionnaire, and a descriptive, cross-sectional design was utilized to structure the study.
