2023-07-12 12:00 - 13:00, 2023-07-26 13:00 - 14:00 (Europe/London) | Online Session, United Kingdom
What is the NHS Type 2 Diabetes Path to Remission Programme?
This is a 12 month treatment programme with the aim of achieving diabetes remission. The programme is lifestyle-led health management, rather than a medication first approach. It supports patients with significant weight loss (15kg), improvement in HbA1c and reduction in medication needs. Patients are offered a choice of digital or F2F care and their Oviva clinician supports them in 1:1 sessions through two phases:

Oviva Change – 12 weeks of total diet replacement, 800-900 calories a day. Followed by 6 weeks of food reintroduction, tailored to the patient.
Oviva Sustain – 34 weeks of establishing new healthy habits

Patients are guided to use unique digital tools and Oviva learn content to support their journey and can continue to access these once they have completed the programme.
Where can I learn more about NHS T2DR?

“It was so useful to hear Katherine’s lived experience and she gave such valuable insight on how to talk about eating disorders with people who are suffering which I really appreciated.”​

Session on using NHS Estates to support personalised care roles
