The Pediatric Endocrine Society of Kenya (PESK), in collaboration with the Clinton Health Access Initiative and the Ministry of Health, is committed to enhancing the lives of children with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) in Kisii County. This vital initiative addresses the challenges of missed diagnoses, inadequate management, and gaps in routine care for T1DM.
Empowering Healthcare Workers for Effective T1DM Management
PESK’s comprehensive training programs, including workshops, seminars, and hands-on sessions, are designed to empower healthcare workers with the latest knowledge and skills for:
- Early T1DM Recognition: Ensuring prompt identification of symptoms for timely intervention.
- Optimized Management Strategies: Implementing evidence-based approaches, including insulin therapy, diet, and lifestyle modifications.
- Comprehensive Care Protocols: Providing holistic care that encompasses medical treatment, psychosocial support, and patient education.
Building a Network for Improved T1DM Care Across Kenya
This initiative not only empowers healthcare workers but also fosters a robust network of trained professionals advocating for enhanced diabetes care throughout Kenya. By supporting children and adolescents with T1DM, this collaboration represents a significant stride forward in pediatric diabetes management.
