Effective course delivery

The principal aim of the DAFNE programme is to facilitate autonomy, competency and confidence in the self-management of diabetes by providing skills-based training in the areas of carbohydrate counting and insulin dose adjustment in a comprehensive range of situations.

As in Remote DAFNE, the flow of the course outlined in the timetable is designed to support health literacy by introducing simple concepts first, then building on them.

As an educator, you need to be familiar with the three key resources you will use to deliver a DAFNE course.

• Curriculum
• Course book
• Activities book.
