The sample used in this study was 13 elderly people who had diabetes mellitus. Researchers use sample criteria to determine samples in research according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Result: The results of the analysis using the Wilcoxon test showed that there was a difference in blood glucose levels in the elderly before and after implementing Diabetes Self-Management Education is p = 0.001, which means it has statistical significance. Conclusion: This research shows that implementing Diabetes Self-Management Education can reduce blood glucose levels in the elderly.
