Be Prepared Be Prepared to live well with diabetes during COVID-19. Get your flu shot and prepare your sick day plan. Stephanie s Story 17 July 2020 I’ve always been a pretty stressed and highly strung sort of person. When I was diagnosed with diabetes at 19 years old, my immediate reaction was to work super hard at getting it “perfect” (classic overachiever!). I’ve never been able to afford an insulin pump, so managing with injections has obviously NOT been “perfect”. There are times when I get so frustrated because I’m doing everything “right” but my BGLs aren’t reflecting that. I’ve really had to let go of the idea of managing it perfectly, and focus on celebrating small wins – like an entire night within my target range! Diabetes Australia s Outstanding Achievement Awards 2020 Recipients 19 June 2020 Yesterday we had the pleasure of acknowledging two very special members of the Australian diabetes community.Neill Decker OAM and Ian Rodwell AO both received Outstanding Achievement Awards from Diabetes Australia for their contribution to diabetes leadership and research. #DiabetesStories featuring Rod 15 June 2020 What better way to kick off Men's Health Week than with a #DiabetesStory. Rod was generous enough to share his experience of living with diabetes with us and the community. Rod's story begins the way too many diabetes diagnoses stories do - with a trip to the emergency room. A pathway to health – Celebrating National Reconciliation Week with the launch of new First Nations artwork 1 June 2020 Diabetes Australia has partnered with emerging First Nations artist Keisha Leon on the development of new artwork to tell the story of diabetes and its significant impact on First Nations people.The new artwork was released today as part of Diabetes Australia’s National Reconciliation Week activities. An open letter to Australians 26 May 2020 Dear Australia,Let’s work together to put your health firstCOVID-19 caught us by surprise, testing our health system and testing our country in many ways. The good news is that the actions taken to “flatten the curve” and reduce the spread of COVID-19 are working – but now we need to take action to avoid a second wave of health problems. “This is really critical”: diabetes groups alarmed by fall in patients presenting for check-ups 1 May 2020 Diabetes Australia, the Australian Diabetes Society and the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners are urging people living with diabetes to have their routine pathology and other check-ups to avoid long-term damage to their health.Around 1.35 million Australians have diabetes. This includes all types of diagnosed diabetes. For all types of diabetes, keeping blood glucose levels within a target range helps prevent both short-term and long-term complications. This is ensured with regular pathology tests and follow-up appointments with their health professional.
