Free Comprehensive Care Diabetes Self-Management Education (DSME)

At Comprehensive Care, we want to help people with type 2 diabetes enjoy optimal health and wellbeing. We do this by offering free education and support programmes for people with type 2 diabetes.

Our Diabetes Self-Management Education (DSME) programme is a free course for people diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Through this course, Comprehensive Care helps you to improve your understanding of your condition and empowers you to self-manage your health.

We teach people how to live well with type 2 diabetes through medication management, diet, exercise, managing stress, and avoiding complications. The invitation is extended to both people with diabetes and their whānau. 

Our courses are run as practical one-day sessions, with catered morning tea as part of our kai and kōrero.

We are currently planning courses in other languages, and will launch next year. 


We also offer free one-on-one dietitian consultations for patients and whānau.
