“…Also, investing human and non‐human resources in developing countries is recommended for the prevention of diabetes complications (Ezenwaka et al. ) by financially supporting the HCPs to update their skills regularly. Consequently, creative and skilful HCPs will still be able to perform their important role despite the lack of resources available.…”

“…Thus, the importance of diabetes self-management support (DSMS) is critical in the provision of DSME. For example while 94% of type 2 diabetes patients that participated in a research study on home blood glucose monitoring acknowledged that self-monitoring of blood glucose assisted in their blood glucose control, 70% indicated that selfmonitoring of their blood glucose levels was a very expensive practice [21]. This would suggest that if there is no diabetes self-management support, the application of the theoretical knowledge from DSME will be ineffective.…”

Aim: To compare the knowledge of practice nurses on principles and concepts of diabetes self-management education (DSME) before and after a DSME training workshop. Methods: All 150 practice nurses currently studying for a bachelor's degree were invited for a 2-day DSME training workshop. 88 practice nurses (59%) responded. Each participant was requested to complete and return selfassessment questionnaires before and after the training. The pre-and post-workshop knowledge of the nurses were compared using Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test for non-parametric tests in SPSS. Results: The practice nurses were aged between 20 and 62 years and the majority (95.1%) were employed in the public sector. Before the training, 98-100% of the participants knew and agreed with the five articulated princples of DSME and these did not change after the workshop training (all, p>0.05). Similarly, their understanding (96-100%) of the concepts of DSME before and after the training were similar (all, p>0.05). Conclusions: The practice nurses in Trinidad and Tobago have sufficient theoretical knowledge of the principles and concepts of DSME. The transfer of this knowledge to their patients in their care will depend on the educational infrastructure available to facilitate efficient DSME.
