• The nurses in the practice are the primary contact regarding diabetes monitoring and discussions with new diabetics but occasionally the GP is required to step in. This topic has been useful for updating me on some of the education information and on the statistics regarding living with diabetes. This will improve my patient care. Core

  5/12

• The importance (of) mental health in diabetes. Good variety of subject covered in this module. It will definitely highlight the importance of coding and that all are responsible to make improvements in education uptake. Intermediate

  6/12

• Highlighted the differences between type1 and type 2 and also the importance of referrals and getting the patients the help they need. Often, as a paramedic, we visit patients and treat their hypo but often don't look deeply into the why? This has helped me to look at the lifestyles and underlying social issues. Very informative section Core

• It's everyone's role within the organisation to ensure that the (structured education) coding is correct as current figures may not actually be a true reflection... I will be more aware of what coding is and the implications of making sure that it's correct. It's interesting (hearing about) what courses are on offer for the patient and that the care that patients receive and guidance from diagnosis. Core

• I have learnt about the different support available for Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes and how important (structured educational) referral is at all stages of treatment. Motivational Interviewing skills I attained from this course will aid me in consultations support behaviour change to a greater extent and help to set goals for each patient. This section was very helpful with a lot of hints, tips and misconceptions of diabetes. Diabetes Expert
