Abstract
Helping patients control diabetes mellitus (DM) and minimize complications is the top priority for care of patients with diabetes. A retrospective review of 86 charts was conducted to investigate the impact of an 8-hour diabetic education program on glycemic control and weight in adults with type 2 DM. Hemoglobin A1C levels and weights were documented pre- and postintervention. Patients participating in the program demonstrated decreased levels of mean A1C and mean weight postintervention. Spiritual care for people living with diabetes and the use of continuous glucose monitors to improve disease management are discussed.
