Noticeboard: Vol 16 No 2

Do you ever wonder if other people are doing the same as you and that you might just be re-inventing the wheel?

The idea of Noticeboard is much the same as an internet message board where people can place requests, thoughts, ideas – in fact anything they want to share – as a brief message on this page. Please send any questions or responses to [email protected].

Band 2 practitioners prompting individuals to administer own insulin

Q We are currently exploring the complexities around Band 3 non-registered practitioners administering insulin.
