To determine the efficacy of and need for patient education methods and media, a needs assessment was sent to 816 members of the American Association of Diabetes Educators. Respondents (n = 325, 40%) included 62% RNs, 36% RDs, 1% other; 62% CDEs. Their mean number of years experience in diabetes education was 8.5, and 99% routinely provided patient education. Respondents indicated that videotapes and slide tapes were the most educationally effective media and books and audiotapes were the least effective. Booklets and videotapes were the most cost-effective and computer-assisted instruction the least effective. While respondents perceived one-to-one counseling, skills training, and diabetes content sessions to be the three most educationally effective methods, support groups and large and small discussion groups were seen as the three most cost-effective educational methods. Among nine potential barriers to quality patient education listed, educators rated lack of third-party reimbursement as a major barrier most frequently and national availability of quality education materials as a barrier least frequently.
