　Purpose: To promote self-care for people with concurrent heart failure and diabetes mellitus(HF-DM), this study aimed to elucidate the content of nurses' self-care support by certified nurse specialists in chronic care nursing and obtain suggestions for nursing support for people with HFDM.

　Methods: Semistructured interviews with 19 nurse specialists certified in chronic care nursing were conducted, and data were qualitatively and descriptively analyzed.

　Results: Ten categories were obtained, including "maximum respect for the people's wishes in determining the priority of HF-DM," "adjustment of priority and rigor of self-care through careful assessment of medical conditions," "reinforcing awareness of the interrelationship between HF and DM," "unifying and simplifying self-care for HF-DM that are difficult and complex to manage together," and "unifying different support policies that rely on the expertise of HF and DM."

　Conclusion: Seeking a compromise between people's wishes based on medical judgment in deciding self-care priority for HF-DM and integrating and simplifying self-care for HF-DM are important nursing support in promoting self-care for people with HF-DM.
