Product Info

The Diabetes Living My Best Life™ CD-ROM provides a highly interactive, technology based tool for health practitioners and patients working on self management education. The program provides interactive elements that enable people with diabetes to identify concerns, goals and barriers to self management as well as develop new strategies to work through many of the hurdles commonly encountered when managing type 2 diabetes.

Content sections on Exercise, Food and Nutrition, Blood Sugar and Medical Care teach self-care through messages that motivate and reinforce. Personal stories highlight a change process in living successfully with diabetes and drive the acquisition of content. A My Story area features tools and fact sheets that support effective self management.

The Institutional Edition includes the Guide for Diabetes Education with each CD-ROM. This guide is designed to assist health and lay community educators in using the CD-ROM when working with small groups and individuals. The guide focuses on four client activities (problem solving, strengths, goal setting and extended learning) to build knowledge and skill in diabetes self care.
