CONTINUOUS GLUCOSE MONITORS (CGM)
Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGM’s) are revolutionizing diabetes care by providing real-time, detailed insights into glucose levels, which help patients and healthcare providers optimize treatment and improve long-term outcomes.
The devices are used to track glucose (blood sugar) levels in real time throughout the day and night. CGMs are especially useful for individuals with Diabetes, as they provide a continuous stream of glucose data.
Continuous Glucose Monitors are now FUNDED FOR TYPE 1 DIABETICS with a Special Authority script.
To receive your Continuous Glucose Monitor, you will need to arrange an appointment with your doctor who will complete a prescription for you.
If you are unsure about the use of CGM, our Diabetic nurse is able to offer education, please speak to our reception team who will be able to book a 15 minute session (this is separate to your GP appointment).
