Improving Quality of Care
The Hypo Box has been created to provide Primary and Secondary care settings with easy to use, accessible glucose products that can be easily identified and located in case of patient hypoglycaemia.
Auditability & Training
Each Hypo Box is supplied with a treatment pathway and a patient record book for documentation and auditability of all hypoglycaemic episodes. Training is provided to staff of all levels, which can be incorporated into the evelopment/training plans for staff of each individual organisation, for example:
- Hospital wards
- Nursing homes
- Schools
- Diabetes clinics
- GP surgeries
- Prisons and remand centres
Potential cost savings for Primary Care Trusts
Correct Hypo Box usage translates to an average cost of £1.33 per ‘treatment’, which may prevent severe hypoglycaemia and additional associated costs such as ambulance callouts or hospital bed-stays
The Hypo Box Hypoglycaemia Kit contains a range of items making it an essential purchase for those suffering from diabetes, or a practice, school or workplace wishing to be prepared for a patient experiencing hypoglycaemia. The contents are contained in a highly visible, portable case.
