When caring for a Diabetic patient, it’s important for IHHC Nurses to ensure that both the patient and the family understand the goals, which are as follows:
• Establish independence and management of diabetes and medications
• Increase patient's ability to control their diabetes
• Encourage patients to have good quality of life with the disease
• Evaluate and instruct for home safety
• Decrease hospitalizations
• Safe medication administration
In addition, IHHC work with patients and their families to further understand how a variety of aspects of diet, exercise and medication could potentially affect blood sugar levels and what to do in response. Administering insulin properly through the use of an insulin pen helps patients have better control over their diabetes between home health care visits.
