Diabetes services in Milton Keynes were being duplicated and a need to coordinate services in local primary care settings was identified. This article explores how nurse led clinical commissioning is improving services for patients with diabetes in the area. It examines the practical challenges of the service redesign, how personalised care planning for people with diabetes can improve quality of care, and the benefits for nurses of becoming involved in clinical commissioning.
