Lived experience of using Hybrid Closed Loop
In this video Tom speaks to Yasmin by getting to know her in our fun quick fire questions. Yasmin then shares her lived experiences of using Hybrid Closed Looping (HCL).
We talked about:
– How long Yasmin has been using HCL, how she heard about HCL and why did you move over to HCL?
– The features that Yasmin feels help improve her quality of life and overall management and control of her diabetes.
– The transition to HCL from using a pump and pens.
– and what Yasmin thought could be done to make HCL better for herself as as a person living with Diabetes; as well as for a parent/carer and for Health Care Professional?
