| The programme featured three keynote talks. Dr Rose Stewart, Consultant Clinical Psychologist with the Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board and Adult Diabetes Psychology lead for BCUHB and NHS Wales, opened the seminar with a keynote, entitled “Being human in the age of digital diabetes”. Dr Sheena McHugh, from the School of Public Health, UCC, presented findings from the CUSTOMISE project. She presented the findings from a series of tailoring exercises undertaken with DAFNE teams to develop tailored implementation strategies. The final keynote, “Developments in DAFNE Education”, was delivered by Dr Jackie Elliott, Chair of the DAFNE UK Executive Board, who shared updates from central DAFNE management, including results from patient-reported outcome measures collected in England.
People living with type 1 diabetes who had completed the DAFNE programme (DAFNE graduates) took part in panel discussions. Their role was to share their lived experiences of the programme.
Healthcare professionals who deliver the programme (DAFNE educators) also took part in separate panels. Their aim was to share their perspectives from the frontlines of diabetes education. |
