Further to the successful launch events held in the East Midlands, South East and North West areas, the new East of England Diabetes Transformation and Sustainability Network will hold its inaugural meeting in October. The network aims to support the commissioning of high quality, outcomes focused and value for money diabetes services that support your local STP delivery.
The network will bring together like minded people from across healthcare, local authorities, the third sector and other relevant stakeholders who are involved in the commissioning and delivery of services to prevent, care for and support patients with diabetes and associated health problems. The meetings will provide a platform for active discussion and exchange of ideas to deliver diabetes prevention and management in a more integrated way.
