🌟 Day 2 | Advanced Type 1 Diabetes HCP Education Program 🌟
Kuching is still buzzing with learning! 💙
What a great turnout for Day 2 of the Advanced Type 1 Diabetes HCP Education Program, organised by Changing Diabetes in Children (CDiC).
Day 2 took us deeper into the evolving landscape of Type 1 Diabetes, beginning with early-stage T1D screening and the very real challenges of delivering high-quality diabetes care in resource-limited settings.
The learning continued through engaging, case-based discussions focused on practical issues that healthcare professionals encounter in their daily practice — including adjunctive therapies, cardiorenal complications, weight management and hypoglycaemia unawareness.
Importantly, we also addressed the often-overlooked mental health challenges faced by people living with T1D, highlighting the need for holistic care that goes beyond glucose management. 🫶
The programme concluded with discussions on managing T1D in special situations, including Ramadan, alcohol consumption and driving — topics that require practical knowledge, thoughtful counselling and individualised care.
Throughout the two days, the enthusiasm remained high. The active participation, thoughtful questions and lively discussions reflected a shared commitment among healthcare professionals to continuously improve the quality of care we provide to people living with Type 1 Diabetes.
In the closing remarks, the Chairperson encouraged more healthcare professionals to join the Basic Type 1 Diabetes HCP Education Programme, equipping themselves with the latest knowledge and practical skills in T1D management.
Because better diabetes care begins with better education, stronger teamwork and a shared commitment to keep learning. 💙
A huge thank you to all our wonderful faculty, participants and the CDiC team for making these two days so meaningful and memorable.
Two days. Many conversations. One shared goal — better care for every person living with Type 1 Diabetes. 🇲🇾💙
Until we meet again… Ciao! 👋
