Aim: The objective of this study was to evaluate self-care practices among diabetics attending the Rural Health Training Centre. Methodology: A cross-sectional study was conducted at the Diabetic Outpatient Department, Rural Health Training Centre of a Medical College Hospital, among 150 people with type II diabetes from June 2019 to August 2019. A validated semi-structured questionnaire was used to interview the participants with a sample size of 150. The summary of diabetes activities (SDCSA) scale was used to assess diabetes self-care. Glycaemic control was considered the primary outcome variable. Risk factors were considered as primary explanatory variables chi-square test was used to test statistical significance. Results: Among the study population, 42 (28%) participants were aged between 30 to 40 years, four (22.67%) participants were aged between 41 to 50 years, 43 (28.67%) participants were aged between 51 to 60 years, and 31 (20.67%) participants were aged 60 years and above. The univariate logistic regression analysis had shown a statistically significant association between glycemic control with risk factors like smoking, alcohol, history of diabetes, taking drugs regularly, history of treatment, test glucose, fasting blood sugar, and postprandial blood sugar. Conclusions: Our study findings have proven the association between self-care practices and good glycemic control.
