Diabetes burnout can lead people to disengage from care, miss appointments, turn off alarms or feel overwhelmed by the daily demands of diabetes management. In this episode of Diabetes Canada Healthcare Huddle, Dr. Tiffany Shepherd joins Dr. Sara Stafford and Gail MacNeill to discuss how healthcare providers can recognize and respond to diabetes burnout. The conversation explores how burnout differs from diabetes distress and depression, why early screening matters, and how to open supportive conversations with patients. Dr. Shepherd also shares strategies to reduce burden, adjust technology use, strengthen support systems and connect people with diabetes-informed mental health resources.
