Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic health condition affecting millions globally. Diabetes is a growing concern among aging societies, with its prevalence increasing among those aged 65 and above. Enabling disease self-management via relevant education is part of high-quality care to improve health outcomes and minimize complications for individuals living with diabetes. Successful diabetes self-management education (DSME) programs usually require tailoring for the intended audience; however, there is limited literature about the preferences of older persons in Western countries concerning DSME. As such, a broad overview of DSME for older persons was an identified need. To map the available evidence on DSME for persons aged 65 years and older in Western countries, the JBI methodology for conducting and reporting scoping reviews was used. In this scoping review, we considered all studies about DSME for older persons with T1D and T2D in Western countries where lifestyles, risks, prevention, treatment of diabetes, and approaches to self-management and DSME are similar (e.g., North America, Western and Northern Europe and Australasia). Systematic keyword and subject heading searches were conducted in 10 databases (e.g., MEDLINE, JBI EBP) to identify relevant English language papers published from 2000 to 2022. Titles and abstracts were screened to select eligible papers for full-text reading. Full-text screening was done by four independent reviewers to select studies for the final analysis. The review identified 2,397 studies, of which 1,250 full texts were screened for eligibility. Of the final 44 papers included in the review, only one included participants’ understanding of DSME. The education programs differed in their context, design, delivery mode, theoretical underpinnings, and duration. Type of research designs, outcome measures used to determine the effectiveness of DSME, and knowledge gaps were also detailed. Overall, most interventions were effective and improved clinical and behavioural outcomes. Many of the programs led to improvements in clinical outcomes and participants’ quality of life; however, the content needs to be adapted to older persons according to their culture, different degrees of health literacy, preference of education (e.g., individualized or group), preference of setting, degree of frailty and independence, and comorbidities. Few studies included the voices of older persons in the design, implementation, and evaluation of DSME programs. Such experiential knowledge is vital in developing educational programs to ensure alignment with this population’s preferred learning styles, literacy levels, culture, and needs—such an approach could manifest more substantive, sustained results.

“…Further explained by Alonso-Domínguez et al ., 2019 that the combination of health education can increase knowledge in lifestyle modification (diet regulation, physical activities). In addition, there is a combination of educational methods such as training for patients and followed by monitoring using the telephone to evaluate the effectiveness of the methods used to increase knowledge about diabetes, improve self-care behavior and control HbA1c levels (Babalola et al ., 2021). Through the use of smartphones, diabetic patients can contact or communicate with nurse regarding things they need and support in treatment.…”

“…Supports to improve compliance can be done through educational interventions e.g direct coaching. In terms of disease management to diabetic patients, it is addressed based on diabetes self-management (healthy diet, physical activity, monitoring blood sugar levels, medication adherence, problem solving, reduction of the complications risks, and effective coping (AADE, 2016) in Babalola, et al 2021. It was further explained that nurse-led coaching in terms of lifestyle modification can reduce systolic blood pressure and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease in the patients with type 2.…”

Background: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is one of the chronic non-communicable diseases that has currently been very common, in particular Diabetes Mellitus type 2 that threatens public health. It has been included in the category of the six biggest causes of worldwide death, but self-control of treatment and obedience to self-care is still low. One of the influencing factors is related to the lack of knowledge. Providing ongoing health education is one of the solutions or efforts to strengthen knowledge in type 2 diabetes. The aim was to identify the various health education methods currently used by nurses and their impacts on type 2 DM. The method used is a literature review. The literature was searched on data based on Scopus, Web of Science, SAGE, CINAHL with the keywords methods or interventions, education, health, nursing, and type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Fifteen (15) pieces of literature were considered to meet the criteria inclusion. Results: Three (3) types of health education methods used by nurses were identified: 1). Direct health education refers to providing education by nurses to patients through training, coaching, interviews, Focus Group Discussion (FGD), and home visits; 2). Indirect Health Education - using mobile phones; 3). The mix of direct health education and the use of mobile phone-based applications is carried out with the application of mobile health technology and nurse health coaching. The impact of providing health education by nurses to type 2 diabetic patients: increasing of knowledge, behavioral change on preventing diabetes complications, increasing self-efficacy, increasing self-care activities (diet management, physical activity, monitoring blood sugar levels, and foot care). Conclusion: various methods of health education carried out by nurses currently have a positive impact on improving and increasing self-care management and efforts to prevent complications in type 2 diabetes.
