Our Goals
BEATING DIABETES TOGETHER
Western Sydney Diabetes Goals
Recognising that diabetes is a critical health priority for Western Sydney, the goals of the WSD initiative are to increase the proportion of the healthy population, slow the progression towards being at risk of diabetes, and reduce the size of the at-risk population. In patients with diabetes, the aim is to prevent and to slow their health deterioration through a continuum of obesity, pre-diabetes, uncomplicated diabetes to a condition of diabetes with devastating co-morbidities. Given the right strategy, commitment and resources, the diabetes epidemic can be turned around.
