Who is Oviva?

Oviva is a provider of healthcare services, including dietitians, diabetes specialist nurses and psychologists that use technology to make care more convenient and accessible for patients.

What happens on the programme?

The programme is split into three stages.

Stage 1 Start: Patients will have a phone call consultation with a specialist diabetes dietitian to discuss their current health and wellbeing and personal health goals. Once agreed your goals with your dietitian, you will work together to create a plan.

Stage 2 Change: You will have 6 weeks of support from your personal health coach to help you create new habits and stay on track, with flexible appointments using phone calls or app messaging. The programme will be tailored to you, your goals and how confident you feel in achieving them. You can use our smartphone app to track your progress, speak to your coach and access our online learning resources. You can also access our learning resources from a tablet, laptop or computer if you prefer using a larger screen.

Stage 3 Sustain: Is focused on maintaining your healthy choices for the long term. You will have six 30-minute appointments (typically one every month) with your health coach to support you in sustaining your healthier lifestyle. You will still have access to all the online learning tools to help you track your own progress.

Where does the programme take place?

The digital Healthier You National Diabetes programme is 100% remote, giving you flexibility to speak with your personal health coaches at a time and location suitable for you. You can take part from the comfort of your own home through messaging in the Oviva app, phone calls, or video calls. You can also access our learning resources from a tablet, laptop or computer if you prefer using a larger screen.
