Insulin Pumpers Canada is a federally incorporated not for profit corporation, and charity (# 88062 9704 RR0001) with it's National office in Lower Sackville, N.S.
Insulin Pumpers Canada began in May 2001, as Insulin Pumpers Nova Scotia. We began as a support group for people who were using insulin pump therapy for themselves or their children and as an information source for people interested in insulin pump therapy. We are not affiliated with any pump company.
What we are evolving into has been directed by the visions of our members (membership is free). They wish to raise the profile of pumping and provide others with the support and knowledge that was a key ingredient to their own success. We seek to fill the void between what medical professionals can do for insulin dependent diabetics and what people who use insulin pumps require in order to optimize their blood glucose control and quality of life by effectively utilizing the insulin pump.
Insulin Pumpers Canada - Nova Scotia Division and head office holds meetings six times per year and are open to all people interested in insulin pump therapy. Ongoing contact on a national basis is available via phone or email.
