Closed Increase diabeties awarness for medical/emergency personal

Closed on

Provide all medical staff and emergency call centre operators with some basic understanding of what diabeties is and how severe the comlpications of lack of rapid emergency treatment can cause (i.e. Death or Coma).
Diabeties is a common illness and yet a lot of doctors, nurses and 999 operators do not know anything about it to the point of not running basic checks or dispatching ambulances to emergencies to give diabetics the best possible chance of life.
