Our objective

The team aims to provide a wide range of services for people with diabetes of all ages and their carers, as well as provide training, resources and support for multi-disciplinary staff across primary and secondary care in caring for people with diabetes.
 

In the next 3 years we want Leicester’s Hospitals to be…

In the top 5 best emergency & specialist trusts in the country where patients receive "caring at its best" from highly motivated, skilled staff who enjoy their work

• Recognised for premium research and innovation which directly contributes to better care for our patients and attracts both new clinical talent and new funding.

• The place where the next generation of clinicians want to complete their studies.
   
• Productive, low or no wait hospitals with transformed clinical pathways which enable better patient care and create significant surpluses to invest in future services.

• An active partner in the local NHS; working with others in and out of hospital and involving patients and the public to ensure that they receive the best care when and where they need it.


• We hope that this website will be useful to patients and health care professionals alike by providing extensive literature and resources on-line.
