Does anyone know where I can buy a Libre [emoji638] reader?

A quick Google says you should be able to get a reader prescribed.

Hi
I have signed a form in the primary school where i work (caretaker) so i am an exemption to the policy.
If you have a risk assessment for your diabetes it should be on there.
There are two other factors in my case one if which is quite nice.
We have a little girl type 1 and she has a sensor and phone which is connected to mum and dads phone at work.
I know mum and me and the little girl often share numbers.
There is a care plan for her but my opinion is asked when she drops very low.
What is nice is all the teaching staff know what to do if her alarm goes off so if mine goes i often get asked "do you need something to eat Mr Sloan " its a 1970s open plan school so at times it gets a bit dotty.

I am not especially good with tech but our IT boffin is, as his son is a type 1, so he programmed my watch to piggy back my phone so i can just glance at my watch.

I hope this helps and i understand my circumstances may well differ to yours.

Either way i wish you well.

Tony
