Diabetes UK Scotland launches “Pump up the volume!” campaign to highlight the need for more insulin pumps “Pump up the volume!” asks Scottish Health Boards to ensure that all those meet NICE criteria for Insulin Pumps aren’t denied one. The charity is also asking Health Boards to announce what resources they are planning to allocate over the next 5 to 10 years towards mainstreaming insulin pump services within diabetes clinics. The year long campaign will encourage support through e-campaigning and Facebook to seek the support of MSPs to challenge Health Boards to ensure that they have high quality insulin pump services in place. Pump Up The Volume! is launched on the same day as the Scottish Parliament debates the current state of insulin pump services in Scotland.
Join Diabetes UK Scotland's campaign to ensure that everyone who is suitable for an insulin pump gets one no matter where they live.
