Currently, there are no national guidelines on transition from paediatric to adult services for children with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) in Republic of Ireland. There are 19 hospitals in Republic of Ireland looking after children with T1DM. Seventeen have a designated clinic for children with T1DM. Ten have a transition clinic for adolescents with T1DM. Most centres transition after patients finish secondary education. Six centres hold transition information sessions and 6 have access to a psychologist. Fifteen centres describe a gradual transition process. There is little national consistency in transition and there is a need for a collaborative national framework on T1DM transition.
