The course introduced me the idea of using a gym to try to alleviate my pain. A little more help with using the equipment properly would have been valuable.

Exercises given very useful for easing problem, however self motivation when home not great! I would probably use an exercise class aimed for eg hip pain especially if provided locally. Eg physio class in whiteparish could be at village hall. If such a class existed it would be more incentive to complete exercise regime given.

Just attended the Food for Life (formerly known as DAFNE) 5 day programme for type 1 diabetics held at St Pauls Church Hall, Salisbury from the 18th to the 22nd of August. This course was run by Anita and Lynn from the SDH Diabetic team. I can not praise the two ladies enough for the quality and detail they put into this course but the icing on the cake was on top of this every day they made enough time to see us individually to ensure we were happy with what we were learning and implementing to change our lives for the better and managing our diabetes conditions, because we are all different. I have come away from this course no longer frightened or scared about my diabetes but feeling that I can manage my condition to give myself the best quality of life that I can. In my mind every penny that it has cost to provide this course has not only paid for itself but actually reduced future costs and use of resources from the NHS. People who attend this course should require less medical treatment in the future as they come away with the knowledge and tools to manage their condition themselves. Please, please, please do not ever stop providing this course or the staffing levels of the Diabetic team at SDH as they are priceless. The care they provide is second to none. There are no improvements that I can suggest that could be made only to keep up the good standards and maintain the quality team that is already there. I can not praise them enough,

I was listened to, advised, and recommended for the gymnasium classes. These classes are wonderful. 2 requests: - 1. I think twice weekly sessions should be offered, although once a week may be sufficient for some. 2. Before each class it would be advisable for the physio in charge to ask the attendees to please wash their hands before and after the session. At my last visit not one patient washed their hands apart from me! 3. The physios were friendly and approachable and always ready to help.
