Study Circles at the Pharmacy--A New Model for Diabetes Education in Groups.

Sarkadi, Anna; Rosenqvist, Urban

Patient Education and Counseling, v37 n1 p89-96 May 1999

Tests the feasibility of a one-year group education model for patients with type 2 diabetes in Sweden. Within study circles led by pharmacists, participants learned to self-monitor glucose, to interpret the results and to act upon them. Results show that study circles held at pharmacies are a feasible way of education persons with type 2 diabetes. (Author/MKA)
