Diabetes

We are part of the Bristol and Weston Diabetes team and so work alongside the consultants, paediatric diabetes nurses and Psychologist.  We see children when they are an inpatient or as an outpatient at Bristol Royal Hospital for Children. We also attend clinics at: Southmead, Thornbury and South Bristol Community Hospital.

We help children and their families manage their diet as part of their diabetic treatment. There is no special diet required, if you have diabetes but learning about the food you eat and counting carbohydrate will help control your blood sugar levels more effectively. We therefore help parents and children learn this process.
