Insulin Pump Therapy Program

Introduction to insulin pump therapy video series

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​For most people with type 1 or type 3c diabetes, an automated insulin delivery system (AID pump) can make life and glucose management easier compared to multiple daily injections.

Diabetes Canada recommends AID pumps because this therapy can provide significant improvements in hemoglobin A1C, time in range, and quality of life.

To learn more about AID pumps and Alberta’s Insulin Pump Therapy Program, which offers an insulin pump, supplies, and support at no cost, diabetes educators have created a series of 5 videos. You can watch the videos by opening the pages using the left-hand menu (desktop) or the menu at the top of the screen (mobile). Talk to your diabetes educator about any questions you may have along the way. Before applying to Alberta’s Insulin Pump Therapy Program, your diabetes clinic may need you to download and complete the Insulin Pump Therapy Program Video Series - Knowledge Check. Ask your clinic to know if this step is required.
