🌍 It’s World Antimicrobial Awareness Week!

This year’s theme from the World Health Organisation is:
“Act: Now: Protect Our Present, Secure Our Future.”

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the biggest global health challenges of our time. Every time antibiotics are used incorrectly or unnecessarily, we give resistant bacteria a chance to grow stronger.
✅ What can you do?

👉 Use antibiotics only when prescribed by a qualified health professional.
👉 Never share or save leftover antibiotics.
👉 Practice good hygiene to prevent infections in the first place.

Together, we can protect today and secure tomorrow. Let’s act now! 💪

Tool to support our patients more effectively.

These are all signs of diabetes distress.�
As a health professional, you play an important role in recognising these signs and responding with empathy.

Simple steps include:
* Asking open, non-judgemental questions
* Normalising the experience of diabetes distress
* Providing reassurance that support is available
* Referring to a psychologist or mental health professional

Early recognition and intervention can make a significant difference in reducing distress and improving self-care.
