Health Literacy Among Young People With Type 1 Diabetes: A Qualitative Study of Patient Involvement
Young people with type 1 diabetes appreciate personal contact with HCPs. They do not want to receive knowledge via digital apps and virtual media but instead to meet with equals. However, it remains difficult to involve them in social events. The problem of how to create contact with young people with type 1 diabetes to strengthen their health literacy remains unsolved, and there is a need for further innovative initiatives.
