Interventional Strategies Based on the Types of Family Characteristics for the Diabetes Educator / 임상당뇨병

ABSTRACT

Family roles are important consideration in diabetes management. The various psychosocial contexts within families, especially those with a member with diabetes, are very complex and play a key role in comprehensive care. It is important that all diabetes educators are aware of such family characteristics when designing an intervention. Diabetes educators are required to understand diverse types of family characteristics and should be well trained regarding such roles to support families with a diabetic member.
