Recent review: “Myself and my colleague recently attended the ‘diabetes awareness and blood glucose monitoring & glucometer training’. There is only one word that I can describe this training as – FANTASTIC. With the knowledge of the trainers, we learnt more than we ever have regarding diabetes training and my colleague has been in care for over 20 years! The trainers were able to answer any questions we needed answering and sign posted us to the relevant information to provide the best care we can for those living with diabetes. I would highly recommend this training to anyone."
Diabetes Awareness Training
Open Workshops
DUET diabetes offers Diabetes Awareness Training as an open
workshop at various venues where organisations can book individual
places .
These workshops are led by an experienced Diabetes Practitioner or
Educator (nurse), and are relevant for people working for care providers
as well as healthcare support workers working in the community or GP
practices.
We also usually schedule a Blood Glucose Monitoring & Glucometer
Training workshop on the same day, to take place after a break for lunch.
This is an optional extra which costs an additional £40.
Where and when?
These workshops are currently provided at various venues across
Suffolk and Norfolk. If these locations are not suitable please get in
