The samples were 66 elderly aged 60-69 years divided into the experimental group and comparison group with 33 elderly in each group. The program consisted of 5 activities including; Diabetes Knowledge Awareness, Good Care and Routine Practice, Choosing a Safe Life, Follow Up and Prompted Support by Online Media, and Diabetes Relieving Contract. The program was designed for family member participation. The data were collected using questionnaires which included general characteristics, knowledge, perception, and self-care practice of the elderly toward diabetic. Data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, Chi-square, Paired t-test, and Independent t-test.
