The continued increase in patients diagnosed with diabetes mellitus (DM), coupled with NHS resources stretched to cope with the increasing demands of managing the condition and its complications, has encouraged healthcare providers to develop appropriate means to educate patients such that they can swiftly become experts in their condition. Accessing education and motivational messaging via prescribed film content designed to precipitate behavioural change as a vehicle to promote healthy lifestyle choices and good self-care practices could reduce the costly complications of DM, such as diabetic foot ulceration and potentially represents a scalable and cost- effective approach. This concept is currently being evaluated in Wales. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
