Diabetes: Nurses
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what steps the Government is taking to recruit more diabetes specialist nurses.
- Answer
-
NHS Digital provides information on the number of nursing, midwifery and health visiting staff employed in the National Health Service in England but it does not separately identify diabetes specialist nurses.
It is for local NHS organisations with their knowledge of the healthcare needs of their local population to invest in training for specialist skills such as diabetes nursing and to deploy specialist nurses.
