BARNSLEY INTEGRATED DIABETES SERVICE

Truly integrated Diabetes service for the Diabetic population of Barnsley.

The aim and vision of our new service is to provide your diabetes care closer to home. The service is commissioned by Barnsley Clinical Commissioning Group to improve and enhance diabetes care for people in Barnsley.

We are a partnership between Barnsley Hospital, Barnsley Healthcare Federation, and GP practices.

What this means for people with diabetes in Barnsley

This change means diabetes specialist nurses are now part of an integrated service, and your future care will be managed in partnership with you, your own GP practice, and the specialist nurse in your surgery.

Referrals are made via a single point of access system. If you require specialist input with your diabetes care, your GP will arrange this.

You can telephone for advice if you are a patient who has already been referred.

You can leave feedback about the service online via NHS Choices at www.nhs.uk
