[QUOTE="AdamJames, post: 1790789, member: 459333"] True, the tools are useless without the training. And part of the training would require medical consensus - i.e. what should people actually be aiming for - which is contentious between recent science and current mainstream medical practice. Something as simple as handing out meters and strips could actually prove to be a can of worms for the NHS when you think about the details like that. It makes me think of my mum again as well - it's like she has some kind of technology filter in her mind. I really don't think any amount of training and explaining would help her in the long run. And there hasn't been a single thing we've ever given her with a battery in which she's kept in working condition! [/QUOTE]
