    (Taylor and Francis Group, 2023) Masupe, Tiny; Onagbiye, Sunday; Puoane, Thandi
    Health education and self-management are among key strategies for managing diabetes and hypertension to reduce morbidity and mortality. Inappropriate self- management support can potentially worsen chronic diseases outcomes if relevant barriers are not identified and self-management solutions are not contextualised. Few studies delib-erately solicit suggestions for enhancing self-management from patients and their providers. This qualitative study aimed to unravel experiences, identify self-management barriers, and solicit solutions for enhancing self-management from patients and their health-care providers.
