Care planning is a process that allows you to have active involvement in deciding, agreeing and owning how your diabetes is managed.
Your annual review provides an opportunity to share information with the healthcare team about issues and concerns (including clinical issues); experience of living with diabetes; help with accessing services and support needed. They then jointly agree the priorities or goals and the actions to take in response to the priorities and needs identified.
