Abstract
Hospitalized patients learn from staffnurses as well as from specialized diabetes nurse educators. This paper examines the involvement of staff nurses in diabetes patient education and the useful roles of the specialist, particularly as change agent and consultant. It focuses on how the diabetes nurse educator bridges the knowledge gap between the expertise of the specialist and practices of the staff nurse in providing patient education for self-care.
