The American Association of Diabetes Educators wants health care providers to relay six facts to their patients who are faced with the challenge of learning how to manage their type 2 diabetes.
According to the AADE, it is important to explain the basics to a patient when he or she is first diagnosed with diabetes, such as what causes the disease, what the treatment options are, and how to monitor glucose. However, patients might not be ready to take in this information without having a few things cleared up first.
