Abstract
The newly-diagnosed person with diabetes may respond to the diagnosis with feelings of grief, a reaction that interferes with patient learning of self-management and results in poor disease control. Recognition of patient grief moves the focus of effective diabetes teaching from the hos pital to the community setting.Keywords
