The study has a randomized controlled, experimental design. Both experimental and control groups consisted of 35 individuals (N=70). Patients in the experimental group were given discharge training and telephone counseling service was given for two months. At the end of the process, data collection forms were administered to both groups for the last time. Necessary ethical approvals were taken and consent was taken from the patients. After the discharge training and telephone counseling given to the experimental group, the mean exercise of self-care agency scale score of the patients increased by 13.94; the mean coping and adaptation processing scale increased by 13.6. The mean exercise of self-care agency scale score of the control group increased by 7.86; the mean coping and adaptation processing score increased by 9.14. The effect size occurred for both groups was statistically significant (p\<0.05).
