In this case report we share our experience of diet and behavior modification in a type 2 diabetes patient using the transtheoretical model. This case had been followed up from May through September 2006, during which time data were obtained by regular observation, interviews, telephone interviews, and e-mail. The results showed that the study subjects were initially in the preparation stage of behavior change. With help from nurses, the subject was able to move into the action stage using intervention including arranging client's own diet plan, recording diet diary, revising diet behavior, with joint collaboration from family members to achieve at healthy diet behavior. The author hopes to provide a reference for health professionals with the transtheoretical model of health behavior change in the care of this type of patient. |
