NHS diabetes prevention personalised
The NHS in North West (NW) London has launched the website to help the 200,000 people who are at risk of developing type 2 diabetes in the area.
Across NW London patients who have had a recent blood test result that shows they could be at risk of developing type 2 diabetes (called non-diabetic hyperglycaemia) will be invited to use the new website. Anyone who would like support or is worried about developing type 2 diabetes is also welcome to go directly to the website and join.
After registering, patients will be able to see a personalised healthcare dashboard, displaying their latest blood results.
The dashboard will offer advice on what is good, improving or getting worse in terms of health and prevention of type 2 diabetes.
Support is then available on the site including educational courses, meal plans and day-to-day advice to help patients understand how to go about making positive long-term changes.
