Diabetic Care Programs
To meet the challenges of managing diabetes, we offer diabetic special
care programs at several of our communities, where licensed nurses trained in
diabetic management are on staff. They teach, assist or can completely
manage the diabetic resident’s care needs.
As part of this program, we partner with the resident’s
physician to ensure that routine lab work and preventive
health maintenance check-ups are completed. We can also assist
with blood sugar monitoring and medication
management, including administration of
insulin, as needed.
We also keep residents up to date on the latest
equipment and medication options used to manage their disease. And through our diabetes professional networking, we bring family
support and educational offerings right to the resident. Click here for communities offering diabetic special
care programs.
