Two of ABCDs core objectives are to ensure the highest quality of care for patients with diabetes and to provide a resource of information not only for our members but also the wider multidisciplinary team and colleagues providing care for people with diabetes.
The diabetes-in-pregnancy work is Diabetes Care Trust's first sponsored project which was conceived by Huw Alban Davies, chair of the DCT and developed and completed with a positive result.
Olivia Burr from DUK and Prof Ketan Dhatariya will be chairing a session at the Diabetes UK Professional Conference 2020 entitled “Inpatient Care for People with Diabetes: An update from JBDS and Diabetes UK”
In this session you will be updated with what JBDS has been doing for the last few months, and what they hope to do in the coming months. Olivia will also be talking about what is happening with her work with the RCP on accrediting inpatient diabetes services.
We are inviting colleagues to submit entries to this year’s competition which will be for the:
‘Best Perioperative Pathway for People with Diabetes’
