Finding diabetes services

Telephone interpreters can be organised for people who wish to speak to a health professional in a language other than English. You could use an interpreter for your appointments with diabetes educators. There is no cost for using an interpreter.

Here at Diabetes Victoria we offer type 1 and type 2 peer support group programs. 

Finding a doctor or general practitioner (GP) you feel comfortable with can make a positive difference to your health and give you confidence in managing your diabetes.

There are different types of supports available for families of children with a disability and carers of adults with a disability.

Travellers Aid offers trained volunteer companions to meet people at the train, bus, tram, or taxi and help them find their way around the city to and from medical appointments, social activities, events or work/education.
