Delegates who are attending next week’s Diabetes UK Professional Conference are being invited to join the Quality in Care Diabetes symposium at the event.

The one-hour symposium, which will showcase QiC’s innovation in practice, will be chaired by Dr Parijat De from Sandwell and West Birmingham NHS Trust.

A number of projects which were recognised at the 2016 QiC Diabetes awards will also be covered, including HeLP-Diabetes, which is an online solution for diabetes self-management support.

Dr Mihirani Balapatabendi, a consultant paediatrician from Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, will present on dedicated annual review clinics for children with type 1 diabetes.

Investing in Children CIC’s project worker Chloe Brown will also talk about expanding the Type 1 Kidz Project and its introduction of simple telehealth services.

Proceedings will then be wrapped up with a Q&A session moderated by consultant physician Dr De, himself recognised at QiC Diabetes 2016 as Diabetes Healthcare Professional of the Year.
