Abstract: Diabetes mellitus is one of the leading diseases worldwide, significantly compromising a person's health and diminishing their quality of life over time. Therefore, the objective of this research was to determine the nursing care impact on quality of life in diabetic patients treated at a hospital in northern Lima. This was a quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional study with a total population of 132 patients who completed a sociodemographic questionnaire and the Diabetes 39 instrument. The results showed that 58.8% of patients between the ages of 30 and 59 had an average quality of life. In conclusion, educational counseling on self-care should be provided to patients with diabetes mellitus.
