Sumario:introduction: the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 is the causal agent of COVID-19, an emerging pandemic disease that requires nursing care based on the nursing process from self-care. Objective: to apply the nursing process fromthe theoretical perspective of self-care to an older adult diagnosed with type 2 diabetes hospitalized for complications of COVID-19. Methods: case study with the Nursing Process of an elderly person with COVID-19, for assessment a card based on concepts of the General Theory of Deficit of Orem's self-care deficit, Halminton anxiety scale and risk of falls scale was used. For the diagnostic deduction, results and interventions, the 2018-2020 NANDA taxonomy, NOC Results classification, clinical practice guidelines and the NiC intervention classification were used, respectively. Results: Eight nursing diagnoses were identified, of which 4 are real, 3 of risk, 1 of health promotion. 8 care plans were developed with a focus on health education and interventions with NOC results criteria and NiC-based nursing interventions and 4 clinical practice guidelines on priority human responses; impaired gas exchange, diarrhea, anxiety and risk of unstable blood glucose. Conclusions: the Nursing Process linked to Dorothea Orem's theory allowed to improve self-care practices and consequently the selfcontrol of respiratory and metabolic disease in the elderly.
