Diabetes is one of the most common chronic conditions in the elderly, and its prevalence will increase as the population ages. How we treat and educate the older person with diabetes will have a significant impact on his or her level of wellness. Clearly, the older adult does have specific needs and physical limitations due to the aging process, but in most cases these obstacles can be either treated or compensated for with patience, knowledgeable care, and support. Further study is necessary in the education, care, and treatment of this special population. Particularly, the need for development and testing of teaching strategies and the evaluation of educational material designed to enhance learning in older adults is warranted.
