Your one stop shop for inpatient diabetes guidelines, educational videos and top tips.

Inpatient Diabetes Training and Support (ITS) forms the basis for a blended inpatient diabetes educational tool which includes a web based educational resource (including links to educational material and guidance) and short educational animated videos based on real scenarios. This web portal can also serve as a standalone platform for quick access to guidance, educational videos and top tips for reference.  

The educational animations are adapted for ITS from original IDEA animations created by Dr Sowmya Gururaj.  IDEA animations have been presented both within the UK (Diabetes UK Annual Professional meeting, 2016) and in the USA (American Diabetes Association, 2019).  These animations provide a unique approach to sharing essential inpatient diabetes safety messages for health care professionals.
