Objective To analyze the value of community health education for senile diabetes. Methods: From April 2020 to March 2022, aged diabetes patients (n=106) in our community health service center were randomly divided into 53 patients in the trial and 53 patients in the control group. The former received community health education, and the latter received routine nursing. Compare blood glucose and other indicators. Results: In terms of disease awareness, the experimental group (92.36±3.79) score was higher than the control group (74.82±4.96) score (P < 0.05). In terms of fasting blood glucose and postprandial 2h blood glucose, at the end of intervention, the experimental group was (5.96±0.79) mmol/L and (8.02±1.74) mmol/L, respectively, which were lower than the control group (6.81±0.83) mmol/L and (9.68±1.92) mmol/L (P < 0.05). Compliance: 98.12% in experimental group was higher than 83.02% in control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Community health education can improve the awareness of the disease more obviously, reduce blood glucose more quickly and compliance is higher.
