NOW is the time for your staff to start pre-Ramadan patient reviews…
Muslims living with diabetes, who plan to fast, should be reviewed 6-8 weeks before Ramadan.
We’re kicking off the new year with Ramadan and Diabetes as our Topic of the Month. The topic provides essential guidelines on how to empower people living with diabetes to fast safely during Ramadan.
Depending on the CDEP level, it focuses on:
-
the significance of Ramadan and the impact of fasting on Muslims living with diabetes;
-
the support people require to fast safely during Ramadan
Please encourage your teams to do this training leading up to Ramadan.
Staff can can access the topic via:
-
CDEP’s website: www.cdep.org.uk or
-
see if the topic has been added to your Trust’s LMS or ESR (Please reach out to us if you haven’t yet activated this easy option.)
