Pump Start Series

Pump Start is a series of one-on-one or group sessions with a Joslin Pump Trainer who works with you to facilitate successful pump therapy. These appointments include starting the pump with saline for about one week and then making the transition to insulin in the pump the following week. There are two follow-up visits after you begin wearing the pump, along with nutrition education and exercise fine-tuning. Foundations of Pump Therapy is a prerequisite for this part of the pump program.
