Abstract

Purpose: This study explored experiences of diabetes education among educators of diabetes. Methods: Data were collected from individual in-depth interviews with 10 nurses and 2 dieticians with had at least 3 years of experience in diabetes education. Data collection was conducted between May 2014 and February 2015. All interviews were recorded and stored as digital audio files, which were then transcribed verbatim. Data were analyzed through qualitative content analysis. Results: Analysis showed that four categories could be derived from the data: 1) barriers of diabetes education from an educator's perspective, 2) barriers of diabetes education form a patient's perspective, 3) facilitating factors of diabetes education from an educator's perspective, and 4) facilitating factors of diabetes education from a patient's perspective. Conclusion: This study suggests the necessity to strengthen the policy systems and financial support at a national level to provide diabetes education with higher quality to patients. In addition, it is required to develop various diabetes education programs with consideration to patient characteristics.
