It is Diabetes Awareness Week and as the Parliamentary Ambassador - TopicsExpress



          

It is Diabetes Awareness Week and as the Parliamentary Ambassador for Diabetes I visited Diabetes NZ in Wellington. Diabetes is one of our most significant health challenges. It affects many people, with many more are at risk or undiagnosed. It is great to see a record number of diabetes and heart checks, 1.1million in the last 5 years, happening, to help people make healthy changes to their life style. A new toolkit to help DHBs provide patient-focused care has been announced, along with advice on self-management for those with diabetes and more information on preventing diabetes.
