Pediatrics

Diabetes Health Thunder Bay is the Pediatric Diabetes program for most of Northwestern Ontario. We provide diabetes education services for approximately 170 children with diabetes and their families. This includes on site clinics with Pediatricians and an annual clinic with a team from Toronto's Hospital for Sick Children. Diabetes Health has a rapidly increasing thriving insulin infusion pump program as well for children and teens with diabetes. In addition to these we provide regular educational and social events for the children including support groups. We provide nutrition and medical services to the family camp committee for Camp Firefly for children with diabetes. We provide regular school visits to those schools with children who have diabetes and provide education to the school staff as well as schoolmates
