Abstract

Although advances in dialysis treatment have contributed to improved survival of older adult patients with end-stage renal disease, it may also create, increase, or prolong suffering in geriatric patients.

adhere among the older adult patients may lead to increased complication rates and
associated costs, decreased quality of life and decreased survival. Self-management
support programs of older adults are emphasizing the patient’s central role in managing
their illness, maintaining their life roles, managing the negative emotions, and providing
there with the necessary knowledge, skills, and confidence to deal with the disease-related with the disease-related problems.
