Dose Adjustment for Normal Eating - DAFNE

  • DAFNE is a skills-based education programme in which adults with type 1 diabetes learn how to adjust insulin to suit their free choice of food, rather than having to work their life around their insulin doses

Diabetes Education and Self-Management for Ongoing and Newly Diagnosed - DESMOND

  • Diabetes Education and Self-Management for Ongoing and Newly Diagnosed (DESMOND) is a structured group education programme for adults with type 2 diabetes. DESMOND has a theoretical and philosophical base; the programme supports people in identifying their own health risks and responding to them by setting their own specific behavioural goals (1)
