title: Preparing for the NSF: a clinical governance model for diabetic care.
abstract: The imminent introduction of a National Service Framework for diabetes has highlighted the need to develop an appropriate nursing model of care. With over 1.4 million people affected by diabetes in the UK, a multidisciplinary approach is required. This paper discusses the benefits and difficulties associated with this during the development of a clinical governance model.
