Theme 1 - Self-Management

In order to better self-manage diabetes, a person requires the necessary knowledge, skills and confidence to problem-solve and make informed decisions about healthy self-care behaviours. Consulting a diabetes educator or health care team can also improve health and quality of life for the person with diabetes.

The Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care has the implementation of Self-Management programs across Ontario. The NDHN supports the Ontario Diabetes Strategy Self-Management initiative. For more information about self-management programs near you, contact the regional self-management program in your area.
