- Mrs Kathrine Makombe, Diabetes Specialist Nurse/Advanced Nurse Practitioner, Tulasi Medical Centre, Dagenham
This free, year-long programme – funded by a grant from Daiichi Sankyo Ltd –includes a combination of group coaching sessions, regular community of practice meetings and webinars covering clinical and non-clinical information to develop knowledge and provide a practical focus on implementing transformational projects within primary care.
