The messages used in diabetes care are historically judgmental and shame/blame based. These messages have an impact on the way people with diabetes think about and care for themselves. This session will present the background and evidence for changing the way we speak to and about people with diabetes, including stories that highlight the problem, suggestions for change, and resources to help nurse practitioners make changes, communicate more effectively, and help their colleagues do the same.
