Guest Speaker Chats
#DiabetesChat – Callum Metcalfe-O’Shea
On this #DiabetesChat we are joined by Callum Metcalfe-O’Shea. Callum has been working in primary care specialising in diabetes as an Advanced Nurse Practitioner for the last 8 years, supporting the creation of a health professionals forum within his local area to improve diabetes education and training for nurses and other professionals.
This work was then recognised by NHS England, in which an annual conference is held to support diabetes training and updates in the East of England. He has recently joined the Royal College of Nursing as the UK Professional Lead for Long Term Conditions – working across multiple long-term conditions including diabetes to amplify the voice of nursing in a range of clinical settings.
Callum still works clinically managing patients with diabetes, whilst supporting his local ICB as a diabetes clinical leader and speciality advisor for elective care and recovery. Callum also is a member of the Primary Care Diabetes Society UK, helping to support diabetes best practice nationally.
