Effectiveness of Education Given to Patients With Hemodialysis Patients

"Patients who agreed to participate in the study and met the inclusion criteria were interviewed face to face before the HD session and their verbal and written permissions were obtained by reading the voluntary consent form. The researcher interviewed the patients one-on-one and provided information about the purpose of the study and the training program. Then, scale forms were applied to the patients. In order not to interrupt the training and not to distract the patients in this group, a separate room in the Dialysis Unit was used during the training. The education booklet Living with Hemodialysis on hemodialysis management prepared in line with the literature was given to the patients by the researcher. The training of a patient lasted an average of 40-50 minutes. During and at the end of the training, the patients' questions were answered in the training room."
