Diabetes

Educational program for health care professionals

Supporting

This program was designed with the newly diagnosed patient in mind, to aid health care professionals to explain through interactive animations, what is a very complicated problem, but we have also found patients with long standing diabetes finding the information contained in this program to be very useful.

The programs content is split into 4 main headings:

Condition – covering such topics as Anatomy, Blood glucose control and Types of diabetes.

Treatment – covering Type 1 and Type 2.

Complications – which includes Diabetic eye, Diabetic kidney, Neuropathy and Circulation.

Living With – probably the most popular patient part of the program covering Home glucose testing, Treatment adjustment, Illness management, Sport, Travelling, Alcohol and Pregnancy to name but a few.

Other features:

• Over 3 hours of interactive education using animated diagrams and pictures with subtitles and voice-over.
• Online enabled – the program can be viewed over the internet or purchased as a standalone cd-rom (to be used directly from the cd or as an installation). The ability to install over a network or intranet is possible, subject to the purchased multiple-user licence.
• Guidelines – the program incorporates the NSF, NICE and European Guidelines.
• Leaflets – the user can read and print out pdf quality leaflets.
• Toolkit – designed especially with the practice nurse in mind. As an example this contains a midwife self-assessment tool.
• Audit Trail – provides the ability to audit the education that has been delivered. A record of which animations have been viewed can also be printed out.
• Accessibilty and useability compliance – the interface can be controlled via the keyboard as well as the mouse. This is especially useful for people with impaired movement or users who prefer to navigate using keyboard shortcuts.
• Web links – extarnal online resources and website links are provided in one convenient location.
• Drawing tool: each animation can be paused – turning the cursor icon into a pen tool. This allows the health care professional the ability to add their own input to a particular part of the education by drawing on top of the on-screen diagrams and pictures.
