The Texas Diabetes Institute (TDI) of the University Health System in Bexar County, Texas, was created to assist communities throughout South Texas and beyond with health care issues associated with diabetes. TDI's
Self-Management Training program (Download .pdf ) is designed to provide state-of-the-art information, skills and tools to individuals and families with diabetes. Since the individual with diabetes controls 99% of the care associated with their condition, placing them as the team captain of the treatment team is of utmost importance. Other members of the health care team include physicians, diabetes educators, dietitians and social workers.

For individuals who have chosen education and self-management as part of their treatment plan, this formal team approach has accomplished substantial measurable lifestyle changes. This program empowers individuals to be come effective self-managers and to make healthier lifestyle choices in their everyday life experiences. We designed this program to improve the lives of those affected with diabetes and to assist in achieving victory over this chronic condition in our communities.
