Exploring organizational support for the provision of structured self-management education for people with type 2 diabetes: findings from a qualitative study
Open accessAbstract
AIM: To explore the organizational context in which Type 2 diabetes structured group education is provided. METHODS: Four Clinical Commissioning Groups in England providing Type 2 diabetes structured self-management education participated in a qualitative study exploring the context for provision of that education. Using UK National Diabetes Audit returns, two Clinical Commissioning Groups were selected that had non-attendance rates of ≤25%, and two that had non-attendance rates of ≥50%. Between May 2016 and August 2017, 20 interviews were conducted with Clinical Commissioning Group staff including: commissioners, healthcare professionals, managers, general practitioners and diabetes educators. Data gathering was prolonged as it proved challenging to engage with healthcare staff as a result of frequent local restructuring and service disruption. RESULTS: Local audits revealed discrepancies in basic data such as referral and attendance numbers compared with national audit data. There was a commonality in the themes identified from interviews: diabetes education was rarely embedded in service structure; where education uptake was poor, a lack of central support to delivery teams was noticeable; and where education uptake was positive, delivery teams were actively engaged, sometimes relying on enthusiastic individuals. Both situations put the local sustainability of diabetes education at risk. CONCLUSIONS: There appears to be a link between attendance rates and organizational issues, therefore, when considering how to increase attendance rates, the state of the diabetes education infrastructure should be reviewed. Good uptake of diabetes education can be too reliant on the enthusiastic commitment of small teams or individuals delivering the education.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
