Are you thinking about an insulin pump but have no clue? Do you have a patient that needs an insulin pump or do you as an RD want to learn more about how pumps work?
Navigating insulin pumps and all the choices is overwhelming. I’m a mom of three children, two of which were diagnosed with type 1 diabetes in 2006. When I was told my son needed an insulin pump, I had no idea what they were or how they worked.
