Standard 2
People with diabetes should receive personalised advice on nutrition and physical activity together with smoking cessation advice and support if required.
Key practice points
Information provided to people with diabetes should be consistent and based on contemporary guidelines.
Information should be tailored to an individual’s diagnosis (ie, type 1 or 2 diabetes) and circumstances.
Advice can be provided on an individual basis or in a group setting.
Nutritional and physical activity advice is most effective when delivered as a package.
Smoking cessation and other forms of treatment should be a routine component of diabetes care and strongly and repeatedly recommended at any level of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk.
Read this standard in conjunction with the equality and diversity section in the Introduction to the Toolkit.
