Psychological and self care outcomes for children and adolescents living with type 1 diabetes and their caregivers attending diabetes camp: A mixed methods study
Diabetes camps can improve caregivers' self-efficacy, diabetes distress and quality of life, and reduce feelings of isolation and overidentification among campers. Future work is needed to promote cultural inclusivity within camps and improve their accessibility, to be able to optimise the wellbeing of all children and adolescents living with T1D and their families.
