How to Use
The patient education materials have been organized into clinical focus areas so that teaching can be customized to each patient.
A team of certified diabetes care and education specialists working on the NEO QI Hub AHEAD Initiative have crafted a selected list of “must have” diabetes self-management education resources for clinicians to share with their patients.
The materials are tailored to the overall goals of the project, frequently asked questions of patients with diabetes, and materials with clear, low literacy messages and content. While numerous sources of diabetes education exist, a concise list of reputable, easy to understand, evidence-based selections are provided from expert groups and institutions.
The intent is to share these handouts with patients to engage them in meaningful dialogue and education around the various topics included. Lifestyle changes can significantly lower A1C! Additionally, informed patients can live more safely with diabetes.
