For Healthcare Professionals

From its beginnings as Dr. Elliott P. Joslin’s private practice in 1898, Joslin Diabetes Center has evolved into the world’s leading diabetes center. Our mission to improve the care of children with diabetes is stronger than ever. Our staff members are committed to providing your patients with the latest advances in care, as well as to passing along their expertise through our Professional Education programs.

Knowledge and information are powerful tools - both for patients and for other health professionals. We’re available to become part of your healthcare team. Together we can more effectively raise the standards of diabetes care in the community, provide optimal management of all children with diabetes, improve outcomes, and enhance quality of life.

There are several ways we can work together:

• Patient Referrals: For diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment planning. 
• Professional Education Opportunities: Joslin has achieved a reputation for excellence in producing programs that maximize educational impact.
• Resources for School Nurses: It is important that school nurses understand current treatment plans for diabetes management and the type of issues that affect school-aged children with this disease.
• Speakers Bureau: Our staff is available to address groups on a variety of diabetes-related topics. Call 617-732-2603.
