cancer patient in H USM. This study is also to explore about the demography of
breast cancer patient who undergone mastectomy, to identify the level of selfcare

questionnaire which was adapted from Van Su (2005). This study is using Orem
Theory. The relationship between post mastectomy self-care with age and
breastfeeding is identified using chi-square test. According to the result of the
study, the level of self-care among breast cancer patient who undergone
mastectomy is moderate and there is an association between self-care and age
of the patient
