ADECA: A novel course for training Paediatric Diabetes Nurse Educators in Sub-Saharan Africa
The ADECA course has successfully created a pool of competent paediatric diabetes nurse educators who can support children and their families as well as train other healthcare personnel in diabetes care and become future faculty members. This bespoke course can be adapted for use in other low-income countries.
