Type 1 diabetes has an impact not only on physical health, but also on social life, family life and psychological balance. Social networks play a decisive role, alongside associations, in helping patients to adopt the "other pace of life" implied by the disease. Beyond health, the skills needed to enable patients to achieve personal fulfillment are beyond the scope of healthcare professionals. Peer communities are an invaluable contribution to building this life with diabetes.

Understanding the lived experience of the disease enables caregivers to offer people living with diabetes personalized support tailored to their needs. The discipline of nursing also enables them to draw on reference authors to guide their thinking and professional practice. Through the concepts of transition, integration of self-care, diabetes distress and empowerment, we explore certain aspects of living with diabetes.

This article is part of a doctoral research project in philosophy exploring the links between nature and care. We outline the hegemonic epistemologies that evaluate the contribution of therapeutic mediation through experience of nature, and review the main criticisms levelled at them. We then suggest an approach, mesology, that we believe is relevant to renewing their evaluation criteria.

Diabetes is a pathology that has major consequences not only for those who suffer from it, but also for those around them. Relatives can play different roles in this respect, depending on the type of relationship they have with the person with diabetes. The onset of the disease is likely to modify pre-established roles within social groups such as the family sphere, with the possibility of strengthening ties, but also of damaging them.

Diabetes management has evolved into a person-centered practice, where specific needs play a central role. Different types of diabetes have different dietary characteristics, depending on the patient's profile. With better access to information, patients are keen to adopt new diets. The needs expressed by each individual must be accommodated, in order to respect their autonomy and improve their quality of life.

Numerous therapeutic advances in the management of diabetes have been made in recent years, leading to the 2023 update of the Société francophone du diabète's position paper. These new treatments, for both autoimmune type 1 and type 2 diabetes, will continue to develop, offering patients personalized care.

The transition of young type 1 diabetic patients from pediatrics to adult diabetes services is a delicate stage, with the risk of a break in the care pathway. These adolescents are apprehensive about leaving the pediatric sector, and often experience the change as an abandonment. It is therefore vital to prepare them and support them during and after the transfer, in order to improve their experience.

In 2002, the Kouchner law made it possible to position patients as healthcare players. In particular, it recognizes the existence of experiential knowledge, giving them a role as experts in their illnesses. In this article, we'll look at how this expertise is put to good use in clinical research, and then in associative research. We will show that, while patient involvement in research has never been so important, there is still a long way to go.

The number of advanced practice nurses (APNs) is constantly growing, and this means that they are being deployed in settings other than hospitals or private practice. Long-term care units and residential establishments for dependent elderly people are among the places where these professionals are being deployed. Their main missions are to improve patient and resident follow-up and care, develop therapeutic education and promote best practices. Here's an example of APN implementation in a residential establishment for dependent elderly people. This is a recent activity, which should evolve in the future.
