SADI supports a network of Division staff working in the area of chronic disease (including diabetes) which provide the opportunity to discuss issues and keep up-to-date with developments at State and national level. Working with key stakeholders remains an important part of SADI's role in diabetes. An endorsed SADI GP representative was a long-term member of the DHS Diabetes Strategic Management Group, providing input to the State's strategic plan for diabetes as well as identifying opportunities for collaboration.
With funding from the Department of Human Services (now Department of Health), SADI produced and disseminated a type 2 diabetes management guide. This guide has been distributed to all GPs in SA and, following strong demand, to allied health professionals. Available in hard copy and electronic formats (CD and website) it provides up-to-date evidence-based management guidelines in an easy to follow format. It is plannned that the contents of the hard copy resource will be updated in 2005.
