A survey on critical health competences among diabetes educators using the Critical Health Competence Test (CHC Test)

Lars Hecht, Gabriele Meyer, Anke Steckelberg
Diabetes associations claim to have a patient-centered approach in diabetes care including shared decision-making (SDM). Diabetes educators are important healthcare professionals for implementing the concept of informed SDM in diabetes care. They need critical health competences (CHC) in order to provide evidence-based information and to support patients in understanding the risks of the disease and also the possible benefits or harm of the healthcare options. Therefore, we surveyed the CHC of diabetes educators.
