A Diabetes Educator-Registered Nurse from Queensland Health, Marie Melksham has spent a day on Rockhampton Campus with second-year nursing students.
"Diabetes is a chronic disease that affects nearly 20% of the population," Ms Melksham said.
"A basic understanding of diabetes and its complications and aims of treatment will allow our future registered nurses to support those people with diabetes they encounter."
