This poster presents research investigating the health information use of older adults with diabetes in the context of the COVID‐19 pandemic. Data were collected using semi‐structured interviews and were analyzed using thematic analysis. Results‐to‐date showed self‐reported changes in using health information during the pandemic; that is, some participants endeavored to protect themselves during the pandemic, they carefully made health‐related decisions, and they had a challenging time following their caregivers’’ suggestions （e.g., taking medicine and exercising） even though they knew they should. However, other participants reported no changes during the pandemic.
