Samantha Beattie - Nurse Practitioner - Diabetes Educator

Nurse Practitioner - Credentialled Diabetes Educator - Certified Insulin Pump Trainer These include insulin pumps and continuous glucose sensing.

I have worked as a Registered Nurse in the Launceston General Hospital for the best part of the last 13 years and over the last 9 years specialised as a Diabetes Nurse Educator in the John Morris Diabetes Centre located at the NICS, where I still practice. I am passionate about improving the quality of life for anyone with diabetes. I will disclose that my journey started as a very personal one, with my youngest son diagnosed when he was four. Since then my interest in diabetes management has grown from a very private concern to a larger mission. I believe in the collaborative journey, helping people integrate diabetes management into their lives in a healthy and positive way. My interests and specialisation in private practice is in diabetes technologies. I am keen to share my knowledge and experience in the newest management techniques available and how to use them well.

This is a worry.
People can’t get into the public health clinics and now they won’t be able to afford the private practice NPs who have been filling the gap.

Consistency.

That’s what makes a difference in diabetes care.

Not a campaign. Not a week. Not a hashtag.

At MyDiabetes, diabetes week is every week.

Because diabetes doesn’t switch off. It’s there at 2am. It’s there when you’re tired. When you’re done. When you wish it wasn’t.

We don’t run flashy platforms.
We are a support platform.

We don’t tell you how it is.
We listen to how it is.

We don’t capitalise on your challenges, your culture, or your diversity.
We just walk beside you, quietly, respectfully, and with purpose.

We BulkBill most of the time, because access matters.

And while others might spotlight the big moments, we hold space for the everyday ones.

Because that’s where diabetes lives, in the background, in the in-between.
And that’s where you’ll find us, too.

Still here. Still showing up.
Nearly two decades in.

Our Story

I am a registered nurse, diabetes educator and nurse practitioner candidate. I am passionate about improving the quality of diabetes education and clinical care for anyone living with diabetes. I will disclose that my journey started as a very personal one, with my youngest son diagnosed when he was four. So yes, I’m a mum of a PWD. I believe in the collaborative journey, helping people integrate diabetes management into their lives in a healthy and positive way. My interests and specialisation in private practice is in diabetes technologies. This means pump and continuous glucose and flash monitors.
