Emerging adults with type 1 diabetes are a vulnerable population. While diabetes self-management and education is known to offer opportunities to develop self-management skills required to achieve and maintain short- and long-term diabetes outcomes, emerging adults are reported to have poor clinic attendance and in turn low participation in diabetes self-management education and support services. This pilot study aims to test a novel approach to diabetes self-management education and support that incorporates technological and applied learning-driven methods delivered through group telemedicine visits to improve emerging adults engagement in diabetes self-management education and support with the ultimate goal of improving diabetes outcomes.
