The National Association of Diabetes Centres (NADC)

The National Association of Diabetes Centres (NADC) is a national collective of organisations that are involved either directly or indirectly in diabetes services and care. The NADC was established to explore mechanisms and implement strategies for improving the standard of care for people with, or at risk of diabetes. NADC member organisations take a leadership role in developing the appropriate networks in their areas in order to achieve this outcome.

Goal:
NADC supports and connects diabetes centres and services to deliver optimal diabetes care outcomes by setting standards of care and improvement.

• To encourage and support specialist diabetes services to work with non-diabetes health professionals to optimise the delivery and standards of diabetes care
