on the diabetes self-management capabilities (t = 0.508; p = 0,600> 0,005). However, nurse's role has an
indirect effect on the diabetes self-management capabilities through family caregiver empowerment of
64.50% (t = 4.036; p = 0,000 <0.005). This path analysis model is fit model and has an accurate
predictive relevance to the existing constructor has a relevant ability to predict (SRMR Value = 0.053
<0.8; Q2=0.331 >0). Conclusion: The nurse's role has a direct influence on family caregiver empowerment
