The population consists of 150 hemodialysis patients at RSUD Abdoel Moloek in Lampung Province, with a sample size of 110 respondents. The sampling technique used is purposive sampling. Data analysis is conducted using the chi-square statistical test
Results: Based on frequency distribution, 36.4% of respondents reported low family support, while 63.6% reported good family support. A p-value of 0.001 was obtained, with an odds ratio of 4.026.
