Abstract:

Clinical services for people with diabetes are changing. The changes that diabetes services are being forced to face up to today can at times seem overwhelming and scary: more money, less money, changing job descriptions and so on. So should we be looking with pessimism and fear at the changes looming over us? Certainly not, writes David Kerr. Below he describes his vision of the way change can be embraced by specialists working in diabetes care, the impacts this will have on the GPSI in diabetes and the benefits to all areas of the multidisciplinary team and, of course, people with diabetes.
