This information is not held centrally. However, the Scottish Diabetes Education Advisory Group (SDEAG) has been working with undergraduate medical education partners in order to ensure that appropriate education on diabetes is included in the curriculum. The Inpatient Sub-Group of the Scottish Diabetes Group has also been working to improve the ‘Think, Check, Act’ training module hosted by Healthcare Improvement Scotland.

The Type 2 Prevention Framework has also provided opportunities for several professional groups to participate in continued professional development, including training on trauma informed care and the psychological impact of overweight and obesity on diabetes management.

As part of the implementation of the Diabetes Improvement Plan, we funded a Diabetes Improvement Lead post. The primary aim of this role was to support the sub-group chairs and key stakeholders to utilise data from the diabetes dashboard and implement quality improvement methodology across their programmes of work.

One example of this is the development of the quality index scoring system to enable teams to share learning and make best use of the SCI-Diabetes data. Other examples include mapping of current education processes across Scotland and ongoing tests of change to identify ‘Once for Scotland’ pathways for the delivery of diabetes education.

The Scottish Government has published on supporting children and young people with healthcare needs in schools, and this guidance is available on our website. It was developed in partnership with a range of key stakeholders to guide those working in and with NHS boards, education authorities and schools to support children and young people affected by health issues which require specialised support in school.

The Scottish Diabetes Group and its sub-groups continue to consider these issues as we progress through the implementation of our Diabetes Improvement Plan.

This information can be found as part of the Scottish Diabetes Survey. The Scottish Diabetes Survey provides an annual summary of key issues and trends in diabetes care and treatment in Scotland and can be found by following link:

The Scottish Diabetes Survey 2021 is due to be published this month, February 2023.

As part of the Scottish Diabetes Group, we have a sub-group working specifically on pregnancy related projects. The pregnancy group are working closely with SCI-Diabetes leads to develop specific measures for the dashboard. These will help us to identify where and when improvements are being made and ensure we utilise the data to identify future opportunities or risks.
