DSMT Brochure / Letters
The Diabetes Educator FAQ handout is to be given to patients who are unsure about how working with a diabetes educator can help them. The brochure is designed to be printed and made available in the clinic setting so that it can be handed out during clinic visits. The two letters are intended to be used to inform patients about the DSMT programs via the mail. It is recommended that letters be printed on clinic letterhead.
