Community of Practice

Our goal is to accelerate the dissemination and implementation of evidence-based models of care for children and young people living with Type 1 Diabetes.

Are you a health professional and/or researcher working in the field of Type 1 Diabetes in Australia or New Zealand?

If so, we want to hear from you!

Our goal is to accelerate the dissemination and implementation of evidence-based models of care for children and young people living with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D). To achieve this goal, we will establish a Community of Practice (CoP) and conduct research to support its implementation.

What is a CoP?

A CoP is a group of people who share a common concern, a set of problems, or interest in a topic and who come together to fulfil both individual and group goals. CoPs focus on sharing best practices and creating new knowledge to advance a domain of professional practice.

The T1D Models of Care CoP will focus on best practice care for children and young people living with T1D. The CoP is an ANZSPED initiative supported by the Children's Diabetes Centre, Breakthrough T1D Centre of Excellence.

How can I be involved? 

The CoP will be open to all health professionals and researchers working in the field of T1D in Australia and New Zealand.

The first Community of Practice was held on 25th February on Optimising the tech team, presented by Dr Craig Taplin, Head of Diabetes Services, and Kath Irwine Clinical Nurse Specialist at Perth Children’s Hospital. A recording of the session is available to all registrants.

The next CoP will be held in May. If you are interested in the CoP please register your interest below. You will receive a calendar invite and webinar instructions prior to the event date.
