Modern diabetes care requires a great many skills from all members of the diabetes team in order to provide optimum care for patients. This service has to be provided against the background of the GMS contract and the NICE guidelines.
In this thoroughly updated and revised fifth edition of Mary MacKinnon’s ‘bible’, Gwen Hall uses her wealth of experience to provide practical, evidence-based guidance on all aspects of the complex and demanding job of managing diabetes in primary care.
Includes:
“The best just got better. Treasure it.”
Eugene Hughes, Chairman, Primary Care Diabetes Europe
“The complete guide for the primary health care team.”
Dr Michael Hall, Former Chairman of Diabetes UK
“It is a real contribution to a modern understanding of so many aspects of diabetes.”
Professor Harry Keen, Former Vice President of Diabetes UK
“Anyone reading it will be in very safe hands and feel their confidence in diabetes growing chapter by chapter.”
Charles Fox, Consultant Physician, Northampton General Hospital
