A pesantren environment requires santri to maintain physical, psychological, social, and spiritual well-being in a balanced manner. This study analyzed santri self-care patterns, influencing factors, the contribution of pesantren programs, and optimization strategies. A qualitative single-case study was conducted at Pondok Pesantren Al-Istiqomah Kuningan. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with six santri and four pesantren managers or caregivers, observation, and documentation, and were analyzed through data condensation, data display, and conclusion drawing. Trustworthiness was maintained through triangulation, member checking, thick description, and a process audit. Santri who had lived longer tended to demonstrate more structured self-care habits, whereas new santri required intensive adaptation support. A religious environment, schedules, caregivers, and peers supported self-care, while dense activities, limited personal time, adaptation difficulties, and limited professional services inhibited it. Optimization should prioritize self-care orientation for new santri, peer mentoring, caregiver training, schedule evaluation, integrated health records, and stronger professional referral networks.
