Continuous process of diabetic patient's education is essential. Educator's task is to select situationally and individually appropriate form of education and educational tools. Than he becomes capable to motivate patients to participate actively and cooperate. Use of practical and visual educational tools increases the memorability. Studies have shown positive effect on improvement of glycemic control for both individual and group education. When properly educated diabetic patient is able to make independent decisions and manage the disease. Achieving good long-term glycemic control with reduced risk of chronic complications in compliant diabetic patient is the expected target of treatment. Thus the medical care becomes cost-effective.
