[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 781780, member: 17713"] Not all hospitals work this way.. Some you don't get anything until you get to the hospital. The most important thing is that you pump person at your hospital gives you a script to take to chemist before you go on the pump...and a letter for GP informing GP of the change in insulin. My dsn sent both script and letter to me so that I could take a cartridge on the day from home to the hospital when grtting the pump from hospital.. Not sent to home. Then given just 3 basic sets and 2 tubes and told to phone accuchek for supplies. Hospitals haven't got set standards of how they give pumps to patients. Some hospitals you have to order your spares through them! Not direct with accuchek. [/QUOTE]
