| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to develop and determine the effectiveness of a nursing mentoring intervention program for adolescents with type 1 diabetes. Ten adolescents and 7 young adults with diabetes completed this program over a 12-month period. The result shows that the use of the group-based coping skills training session and mentoring intervention improved the metabolic control of diabetes in adolescents over a 12-month period and facilitated their self-efficacy of diabetes management over a 6-month period. The strong connections between the mentors and mentees appeared to be relatively rare, despite the generally positive self-reports on mentoring from adolescents. The nursing intervention of mentoring programs must be strengthened if they are to be successful.
