title: The Christchurch Hospital diabetes education programme.
abstract: The Christchurch Hospital diabetes teaching programme is now well established and towards the end of 1977 the results of an evaluation programme should be available. Our aim is to give diabetics and their families the best possible education and to stress the importance of patient self-sufficiency. Patient feedback methods are used to encourage continuing education. The assessment of the value of the educational programme warrants considerable attention and suitable methods of evaluation are being attempted.
