Evaluation of sense of humor, adaptation to treatment and personal well‐being of patients undergoing hemodialysis

It is seen that patients receiving HD treatment have a moderate sense of humor, high treatment compliance, and low personal well-being. Sense of humor and personal well-being levels decreased with increasing age, while there was no significant relationship between sense of humor, compliance with treatment, and personal well-being levels. While high compliance with treatment suggests that they have insight, it is recommended that a sense of humor and personal well-being be supported, and counseling services be provided to patients.
