Education sessions designed for people who are managing their type 1 diabetes on basal bolus insulin therapy
What can we do for you?
We offer a two-day group education program that teaches participants how to best match insulin requirements to their food and lifestyle for a more flexible approach to diabetes management.
Each small group program is presented by an experienced Diabetes Educator and Dietitian. Practical advice and personalised feedback is provided.
Topics include:
- Insulin adjustment for food and physical activity.
- Carbohydrate counting, including practical activities.
- Diabetes health targets and checks.
- Hypoglycaemia, hyperglycaemia and sick day management.
