- Discuss with your team how adding IHPs to the team improves diabetes care
- Get started on a diabetes program – leverage the program planning resources developed by your peers to apply to your diabetes program
- Encourage your clinicians to use the healthcare provider tools developed by the Canadian Diabetes Association
- Learn from the Sunnybrook FHT about a program they developed to help clinicians understand first hand what patients experience living with diabetes
- Learn how to transition a gestational diabetes program from a hospital based model of care to primary care
