--- Patients receiving haemodialysis must change their lifestyles in order to survive, by learning and doing activities to look after themselves, with the modifications imposed by the disease, all of this will allow them to feel good, staying in their social, family and work environment, as more independent. The success of this therapy will depend on the ability of self-care that they have, to develop activities of daily living and the complex effects that imposes the disease, it remains an area that requires assessment and guidance of self-care. Thus, the present investigation had as main objective the determination of self-care ability, in patients that receive periodically haemodialysis, taking as a frame of reference Dorothea Orem’s Self-care General Theory. The study is descriptive with a transversal cut, to 218 patients that receive haemodialysis at EsSalud’s Haemodialysis Centre, selected by probability sampling. We used an instrument of self-care valoration. The measurement was classified as: high, medium and low. It was using the SPSS software version 13.0 and the nonparametric statistical test of the Chi square. The results showed that 59% had high level in self-care ability, within which 79% were high in the ability to perform activities of daily life, and 53% average level in knowledge against disease and its self-care; concluding that patients showed a high level of capacity for self-care; compared with the activities of daily life, but showed an average level of knowledge to deal with the disease.
