Methods: The elderly type 2 diabetes mellitus patients (400 cases) treated in our hospital between March 2020 and July 2023 were divided into two groups by randomized grouping method; the control group received the conventional nursing program, while the observation group received the family collaborative nursing model. Blood glucose level, self-care ability, and quality of life were compared between the groups. Results: The blood glucose level of the observation group was lower than that of the control group (P &amp;lt; 0.05). The self-care ability and quality of life scores of the observation group were higher than those of the control group (P &amp;lt; 0.05). Conclusion: The family collaborative care model for elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus can promote their self-care ability, improve the effect of glycemic control, and improve their quality of life, and is suitable for further promotion and application.</abstract><keywords/></article-meta></front><body/><back><ref-list><ref id="B1" content-type="article"><label>1</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>He X, Niu M, Liu G, et al., 2022, Needs and Influencing Factors of Home Care for Elderly Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus Patients in the Community.
