Healthy coping module

Supporting programs

Diabetes educators should identify relevant and appropriately quality assured programs and resources that are available locally to support participants in relation to this self care behaviour. It is important to maintain some contact with the people you are referring to so that you can create positive networks and a better outcome for your clients. If you are in a remote area it is even more important to identify where the best referral points may be.

Examples could include:

• Stress management classes
• Yoga and Thai Chi
• Exercise classes
• Diabetes Australia groups and education sessions
• Relaxation groups
• Allied health services, such as, psychology and social work
• Web based support groups
