Diabetes NQ provides support for children, adolescents, and adults with all types of diabetes. My passion is to educate and support our clients so that they can live their best life.
​
I am a Nurse Practitioner (NP) and Credentialled Diabetes Educator (CDE).
​
A Nurse Practitioner (NP) is a highly trained healthcare professional who can do many of the things a doctor can do. They are registered nurses with advanced education and clinical training, which allows them to assess, diagnose, and treat health conditions.
​
Think of a Nurse Practitioner as a mix between a nurse and a doctor – they bring the care and compassion of a nurse and the clinical expertise of a doctor.

About Me
Hi my name is Siobhan and like you, I too deal with and manage diabetes as my son has Type 1 diabetes and was diagnosed at age 6. I am a board member of the Type 1 Foundation and help raise much needed funds each year.
I became a Registered Nurse and Midwife and when my son was diagnosed, I went on to qualify as a Credentialled Diabetes Educator. Further study enabled me to be endorsed as a Nurse Practitioner.
I am a certified insulin pump trainer so I can initiate and set up with you your insulin pump and continuous glucose monitoring devices, and bolus calculators.
I provide support and education to people with diabetes in a non-judgemental way by motivating and empowering you to manage your condition the best way you can whilst acknowledging it is the most challenging and exhausting condition to manage.
