Background: Stress and anxiety have intertwined behavioral and neural underpinnings. Grasping the mechanisms underlying this bidirectional relationship will have major clinical implications for managing a wide range of psychopathologies. Chronic and progressed renal failure remarkably affects the physical and mental health of an individual chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a serious disease with considerable health consequences. Methodology: The research design selected for this study was descriptive research design. The sample size comprises of 60 patients with hemodialysis admitted at selected Hospital Bagalkot. The sampling technique adopted for this study will be simple random technique. In the present study the data will be collected by standard tool stress, anxiety and self care for, the data was analyzed by using descriptive and inferential statistics in terms of mean percentage by distribution, and Chi square test for association. Result: the association between stress and self-care (χ2=6.08) and p value is 0.013 had shown significant association with hemodialysis patient and association between anxiety with self care (χ2=0.19) the p value is 0.64. There is the chai square value of stress is more then table value so their is significant association between stress and self-care. Conclusion: The descriptive study shows that mean ± SD score of perceived stress among hemodialysis patient was 23.4 ± 3.44, median was 41.4 and range was about 15, anxiety among hemodialysis patient was 12.58 ± 3.81, median was 13 and range was about 16, self-care among hemodialysis patient was68.08 ± 7.82, median was 69 and range about 29 and. There is the chai square value of stress is more then table value so their is significant association between stress and self care
