Nursing intervention to evaluate is "Teaching: Individual" consisting in six educational sessions. The investigators will measure 0, 6 y 12 months: Treatment Behavior: Illness or Injury (1609) (adherence treatment), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and systolic blood pressure for 24 hours. Base characteristics of the groups will be compare through chi-square/Fisher´s exact or Students-T/Mann-Whitney U test. Outcomes will be evaluate by paired T-tests or Wilcoxon test at different follow-up times and statistical significance with p-value < 0.05 will considered.
