The vision of the on-going Self-Management program is to provide a single, consistent and coordinated selfmanagement<br />

program across the <strong>Central</strong> <strong>East</strong> LHIN. It is believed this program optimally, should encompass<br />

coordinated delivery of peer-led Stanford CDSM workshops, as well as training to health service providers in<br />

self management support and other leading edge self management-related activities which would advance the<br />

Chronic Disease Prevention and Management Framework to improve health population outcomes.<br />

Prevention and Management of Diabetes in the <strong>Central</strong> <strong>East</strong> LHIN - ongoing<br />

Diabetes 2008 Clinical Practice Guidelines Rollout Priority Project - The Project Team developed and<br />

distributed 16,000 copies of a Diabetes Resource Guide entitled “Living with Diabetes – What you should<br />

know” to increase the profile of diabetes, diabetes services and implementation of the 2008 Clinical Practice<br />

Guidelines. The Project Team also worked to enhance coordination amongst diabetes stakeholders and ensure<br />

a consistency of practice across the CE LHIN by hosting a number of knowledge sharing events for clinicians<br />

and diabetes educators. In <strong>2009</strong>/<strong>10</strong> work began to translate the guide into French, Tamil and Cantonese.<br />

Diabetes Indicators Project - This pilot project introduced similar biophysical and behavioural screening<br />

indicators into diabetes education settings. The intent of the pilot was to learn from application of a consistent<br />

electronic screening tool as well as promote learnings across agencies with regard to challenges and<br />

opportunities in diabetic screening and care management. Four Diabetes Education Centres across the LHIN<br />

were involved in this project.<br />

Population aged 12+ reporting one, two or three or more of selected chronic conditions, by age groups and sex,<br />

Ontario, 2005.
