Ealing Hospital’s Paediatric Diabetes Team has been crowned champion at the Diabetes Nursing Awards, a remarkable achievement just one year after they finished as runners-up. Their win is a testament to the team’s dedication to advancing care for children and young people with diabetes.
The team’s efforts have been focused on promoting the use of insulin pumps, which automatically administer insulin, as well as devices that allow for remote monitoring of blood sugar levels. This innovative approach has helped improve patient care and outcomes by making diabetes management more efficient and accessible.
Emily Mayhew, the organizer of the awards, praised the Ealing team for their exceptional work in paediatric diabetes care. She highlighted the team’s compassion, innovation, and strong collaboration, which are positively impacting the lives and futures of young patients.
Judges also recognized the team’s ability to manage a highly diverse patient caseload. The team’s success in encouraging young people to use insulin pumps was noted as a key factor in their victory, with Ealing’s results surpassing those of other regions.
