| Abstract | Introduction: ongoing evaluation of actions and outcomes of health systems is one of the main expressions of a state guidance and one of the best ways to achieve strategic objectives. Objective: provide a tool for assessing diabetes education program at Primary Health Care. Methods: a development research was conducted. It allowed the creation of a guide to express value judgments based on comparing the results obtained with established standards. Program availability at the office, and materials for education in diabetes were studied. Program availability at the medical practice office, and materials for education in diabetes were studied. For the process, observation and interview guides were designed to evaluate the main activities of the health team; in order to operationalize criteria, indicators and standards with the collaboration of several experts. Results: the proposed guide consisted of 32 criteria and indicators to assess different dimensions. In structure, available doctors, nurses, Physical Culture graduates, psychologists, podiatrists, and nutritionists were taken into account to run the program and training them. For this result, workers and patient's opinion on the services was assessed, as well as some indicators such as mortality, complications, appropriate, desirable or acceptable glycemic control, treatment compliance and incorporation into diabetics support groups. Conclusions: this guide will help assessing the implementation of diabetes education program in primary health care and, therefore, to identify gaps between what is desired and observed, as well as to properly guide the distribution of human and material resources. |
