Paediatric Diabetes Specialist Nurses (PDSNs)
Paediatric diabetes specialist nurses (PDSNs) care for children
with diabetes and their families. A PDSN will visit you on the
hospital ward following your child's diagnosis and start the
education required for safe management of diabetes in the home.
Education continues in the community at home and visits are also
made to schools and playschools to educate all carers in the care
of a child with diabetes.
