Abstract
Mental health problems are commonplace in people with diabetes. Depression and anxiety in particular can have a significant impact on morbidity and quality of life in this population. This article explains how both depression and anxiety in people with diabetes can be more adequately identified and treated in primary care if training is provided to practice nurses. A short review of relevant literature is presented to equip the reader with previous research in this area.
