[QUOTE="Claire007, post: 986409, member: 184290"] There's plenty of emphasis on the impact of poor control. An afternoon was spent on complications, what happens to the organs when BG runs high, etc but unfortunately four people on the course already had quite severe complications as they'd either stuck their head in the sand in one case or lacked understanding in the others. My DSN is part of the original team who brought dafne over from Germany, the course doesn't vary as people seemed to suggest up thread, it's regulated and the teams who deliver it are assessed and observed by Dafne every two years. They are not allowed to vary the content in any way, and they have to deliver the full content of the course. This was all stressed in full at the start of the course. I guess they vary the way they explain things depending on the individuals they have. People will have the diets they choose to have, the course is run with a DSN and a dietician. Healthy eating advice is also part of the course but the EatWell plate was the part of the course I personally dismissed but given the diets some of them had, EatWell would be a improvement, if it makes a small difference then that's a start.
