Five Year Anniversary Of The National Service Framework For Diabetes
EDM number 1388 in 2007-08, proposed by Adrian Sanders on 22/04/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Diseases, Health education and preventive medicine and Health services.
That this House recognises the five year anniversary of the National Service Framework (NSF) for Diabetes; regrets that although good practice exists it is not universal and there are significant numbers of people with diabetes who do not have access to the best possible treatment and care; further notes that failure to deliver on the standards in the NSF will mean that people with diabetes face a higher risk of complications such as heart disease, stroke, blindness and lower-limb amputation; and therefore welcomes Diabetes UK's report Five years - half way there? that highlights some of the gaps; and calls on Her Majesty's Government to conduct a national review of what has been achieved to date and what needs to be prioritised in the next five years.
This motion has been signed by a total of 70 MPs.
