Description

Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support (DSMES) is structured around seven diabetes self-care behaviors, known as the ADCES7 Self-Care Behaviors®. The ADCES7 model guides the health care team in effective person-centered collaboration and goal setting, to achieve behavior change that leads to effective self-management and improved clinical outcomes.

This on-demand course has a strong focus on the barriers and facilitators of behavior change, including social determinants of culturally competent care, individualization, and person-centered care.

The course format combines text, videos, and interactive activities.
