improved quality of patient care as measured by a decrease in the HbA1c levels of patients. Clinical Implications: Pediatric nurses specialized in diabetes education must be included on a team providing care to pediatric patients with diabetes if quality care is expected. Following the creation of the diabetes program, which included diabetes educators, The Pediatric Diabetes Center was able to provide ADA recommended DSME and DSMS and decrease HbA1c levels. Pediatric patients with diabetes may benefit from being referred to health care providers able to provide a team with nurses specialized in diabetes care to patients.
