Diabetes group says health chiefs failing Galway's diabetic children

Galway Bay fm newsroom - Care plans for Galway children with Type 1 diabetes are failing due to a lack of commitment and urgency by health chiefs.

That's according to Diabetes Ireland.

The group says that at UHG, a consultant post within the paediatric diabetes service remains vacant since 2015, following the withdrawal of a successful candidate.

Pauline Dunne is Regional Development Officer and Dietician with the organisation - she says care for young people with diabetes must be prioritised.
