Overview
Decision cycle for person-centered glycemic management is a new diabetes decision making .It is defined as a purposefully designed holistic care intervention .The goal is to improve the self-care behavior of patients with type 2 diabetes, thereby improving glycated hemoglobin levels and delaying the occurrence of complications.
Description
The "Decision Cycle for Person-Centered Glycemic management" jointly proposed by the American Diabetes Association (ADA) and the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) in 2018 , which develops treatment goals and plans based on the patient's personal preferences, values, and goals.

Control group will accept the traditional diabetes self-management education. It content focuses more on teaching relevant knowledge and some skills.It is a educator-centered approach.
Baseline / pre-intervention test (after signing informed consent form) post-intervention test (after finishing intervention) Researchers will compare treatment group and control group to see if treatment group has better performance on self-care Behaviors and glycated hemoglobin levels .
