Description of Current Problem
Diabetes is a very complex disease and catastrophic health problem in the world. There are an estimated 387 million people have diabetes worldwide, by 2035 will rise to reach 600 million (CDC, 2014). In every country have number of people with type 2 diabetes is increasing. This significance increase expected to take place in both developing nations and developed nations. According to National Diabetes Statistics Report 2014, points out 29.1 million or 9.3% of the population have suffer from diabetes in the United States and as many as 1 in 4 people do not even know they have developed the disease (National Diabetes Statistics Report, 2014).

S., Lipman, R., Burrows, N. R., Kolb, L. E., & Rutledge, S. (2014). A person with type1diabetes does not produce any of its own insulin for use by the body, (at first the pancreas makes more insulin to try to get glucose into the cells but gradually loses its ability to produce) thereby the person does not receive insulin from outside source, he may develop a fatal condition, the type 1 patient for all future time need insulin from outside source to alive (Diabetes Care and Patient Education, 2013). Type 2 diabetes generally common form of diabetes, called non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus it usually develops over a long period of time (years), during this time begins as insulin resistance, a disorder in which the cells do not use insulin properly (Diabetes Care and Patient Education, 2013).

Diabetes self management is a critical element of care in every day life, this includes diet, making healthy food choices, exercise, monitoring your blood sugar and taking medications. A large number of studies support that the effect of patient education on knowledge and self management behavior in order to being efficiently manage their type 2 diabetes.
