Diabetes Canada wants students to get the tech they need at school to monitor their condition
Manage episode 454813781 series 2435061
Newfoundland and Labrador has one of the highest incidences of Type 1 diabetes in the world, in children under the age of 14. There's also a high rate of Type 2 emerging in younger people, and Diabetes Canada supports those statistics from the NL government. Children at school have to constantly monitor their condition, but the possibility of cell phone and tech bans in schools raise concerns about how easy it will be to get access to glucose monitoring devices. Laura O'Driscoll is the senior manager of policy with Diabetes Canada.
