Objectives: This study aimed to assess family support behaviors among patients with type 2 diabetes at the 108 Military Central Hospital.
Participants and Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted from December 2023 to May 2024 in the Endocrinology Department of the 108 Military Central Hospital, involving 135 patients with type 2 diabetes. The Diabetes Family Behavior Checklist (DFBC) was used to evaluate family support levels.
Results: Among the participants, 55.5% experienced low family support, 14.8% medium support, and 29.7% high support. Positive support behaviors, such as “Eating together,” “Providing advice on timely and accurate medication use,” and “Encouraging participation in physical activities,” were reported as occurring “frequently” and “always” by 72.0%, 52.6%, and 52.0% of patients, respectively. Conversely, non-supportive behaviors, particularly “Nagging about blood sugar testing,” were observed “frequently” and “always” by 35.6% of patients.
Conclusions: Family support for patients with type 2 diabetes remains limited. Effective diabetes management requires active involvement from both the patient and their family, with the latter playing a central role. Interventions to educate and raise awareness among family members are essential to improve their engagement in supporting diabetes care, reducing complications, and enhancing the quality of life for patients.
