Understanding: What is joint care for diabetes?
is a shared care for diabetic patients, emphasizing a diversified professional team, forming a "patient-centered" comprehensive integration across specialties, majors, and levels, and providing patients with complete continuous care for medical care, health care and quality of life.
There is news that Taiwan, my country, began to introduce the diabetes team care model as early as the 1990s, and established the "Diabetes Health Teaching Association" in 1996, significantly improving the diabetes health education ability of medical staff and effectively promoting the rapid development of the "diabetes joint care" model. For more than 20 years, Taiwan's "diabetes joint care" has played a significant role in maintaining the physical health and quality of life of diabetic patients, attracting the attention of the world.
Practice: Co-care in Ryan
Since 2014, Chengdu Ryan Diabetes Hospital has sent professionals to many medical institutions in Taiwan that are well-known in the field of "Diabetes Co-care" to study and exchange, bringing this advanced model to Chengdu.
In this "Ryan T1DM Summer Camp", the "Co-care" team of Chengdu Ryan Diabetes Hospital worked closely with the medical and nutrition teams to personalize each child's performance and use more targeted measures to make every child with type 1 diabetes the "protagonist" of their own health management, helping them to build confidence and determination to fight the disease for a long time, and teach them how to win this "battle" with the right attitude and scientific way.
In fact, this is just the tip of the iceberg of Chengdu Ryan Diabetes Hospital's achievements in the field of joint care. Chengdu Ryan Diabetes Hospital has established a "co-care" team composed of physicians, pharmacists, nutritionists, athletes, educators, nurses, monitors and other members, and has carried out five aspects of out-of-hospital management for patients. Over the past five years, it has played a positive role in helping a large number of diabetic patients effectively control the development of the disease and preventing and delaying the occurrence of complications.
improvement: Let "co-care" benefit more patients
Since 2014, Chengdu Ryan Diabetes Hospital has implemented the "going out" strategy on the one hand, and has sent professionals to Taiwan to learn "co-care" many times. On the other hand, it has also taken "bringing in" measures to invite senior "co-care" personnel from Taiwan to the hospital for guidance.
This time, as a member of the "Ryan T1DM Summer Camp" co-care group, teacher Ye Guimei, as a director of the Taichung City Diabetes Co-care Network Society of Taiwan Province, and a member of the teaching evaluation, oral examination and written examination of the Diabetes Health Teaching Association of the Republic of China, not only played an important role in the design and development of activities and the psychological adjustment of children during the summer camp, but also carried out systematic training services for the joint care team of Chengdu Ryan Diabetes Hospital, further improving the level of joint care services of the hospital.
Director Tang Hong of the Health Education Management Center of Chengdu Ryan Diabetes Hospital said that over the past five years of study and practice have laid a solid foundation and achieved fruitful results in the field of joint care for diabetes, and will continue to deepen in the future, allowing "co-care" to benefit more patients with diabetes.
