<![CDATA[Chronic non-communicable diseases have become a health concern in the health care system worldwide, especially in older people. Managing the disease was crucial to improving the quality of life among those older people. This study aims to identify self-management among older people with chronic non-communicable diseases. A cross-sectional study method was conducted in two primary healthcare centers. The respondents were recruited using accidental sampling, and 40 older people participated. The socio-demographics, lifestyle, and self-management were extracted by using paper-based questionnaires. All socio-demographic and lifestyle data statistically show no significant impact on the self-management of chronic non-communicable diseases among older people. Predominantly participants were old-old category (55%), women (62.5), the middle level of education (50%), household (42.5%), married (67.5%), consuming salted fish (80%), salted egg (50%). Since the study result is statistically insignificant, the large sample size may be needed to increase the study result.
