Welcome!

Welcome to My Insulin Pump: The Online Education Course!

 The aims of this course are to increase your knowledge of:

• How to wear an insulin pump

• Calculating insulin doses

• Programming your insulin pump

• Safety issues and managing pump failure 

• To improve your confidence around diabetes self-management

• To help you make informed choices leading to better overall health/well-being  

• To improve clinical outcomes (e.g. HbA1c,  hypoglycaemia), where relevant. 

The information contained in this course comes in a variety of different types: information to read, videos to watch, links to other websites, patients on insulin pump therapy who have shared their experiences, and activities and quizzes to help you understand more about how to manage situations as they arise.

You should always have the support and guidance of your healthcare team when starting an insulin pump. This course will complement that face-to-face support. We know that using your insulin pump is a learning process and you may have picked up many tips and tricks along the way.

The comment section below is a great place to share what works for you and to learn from other people in similar situations. Why not take a moment to introduce yourself now?
