Audit and Quality development • Continual support with diabetes education quality and audit reviews. • The QISMET Diabetes Self Management Education Standard has now been published. The DSME Standard is a practical tool, with clear observable and measurable requirements, that enables providers to benchmark themselves and, by being certified against the Standard, demonstrate that they meet the NICE Diabetes in Adults Quality Standard. • QISMET website (www.qismet.org.uk)
Summary • We are in a period of great change (again); however it is vital we all work together to support each other with best practice. • We could easily get lost in the mountains of work we now have to do; however there are resources available to ensure we have the best knowledge for this vital task • Most importantly our patients have the highest quality of care and greater understanding about THEIR condition • We are in this together.
