Museum “Curator” and IDS Intern Adwoa Bekoe can’t believe we used to use all this weird stuff.
The Diabetes Museum Wants Your Stuff!
There’s a lot to be gained from studying history. We can learn what worked and what didn’t. It inspires innovation. And it can give us a greater appreciation for how far we’ve come.
To that end, we at Integrated Diabetes Services (IDS) are creating a Museum of Diabetes Treatment right here in our office.
We already have some seriously outdated stuff, but there’s always room for more! We’re especially interested in:
- pre-meter blood/urine testing equipment
- pre-1990 insulin pumps
- vials of obsolete insulin (such as Lente or Illetin)
- stones used for sharpening syringe needles
- old diet plans
- anything else that puts the current state of care in the proper perspective
If you have anything to contribute to our Museum of Diabetes Treatment, please send it to:
