In the management of diabetes, the nurse is a key figure in the practice team. It is she who sees the patients most frequently and who carries out most of their education; it is she who is responsible for enabling them to take appropriate decisions on monitoring, treating and living with their diabetes effectively. This book is therefore written primarily for the practice nurse. It provides her with the necessary background information on the disease, its possible complications and how to prevent them. It also suggests how to develop, implement and evaluate an education programme, while stressing the importance of involving the patient in the learning process. 'At last - a book on diabetes specifically for practice nurses, that is concise, readable and a good reference book. If you already run a diabetic miniclinic, or are thinking of setting one up, then this book will update and strengthen your knowledge of diabetes. This well written book will certainly improve your understanding.' Practice Nurse 'This is a superb book, which I am sure would be welcomed by any practice nurse who is involved in caring for patients with diabetes. Many of the protocols, patient information sheets and practical procedures are not found in conventional medical textbooks and this volume would be an excellent introduction to diabetes for most medical students and trainee general practitioners.' Family Practice 'This is an easy book to read, with information given clearly and comprehensively. Aspects of diabetic care from diagnosis to treatment as well as possible complications are covered, and there is special emphasis on how important it is for the nurse to enable the diabetic person to become independent through education.'
