Insulin Administration and Monitoring
Diabetes is one of the diseases for which insulin treatment is essential in controlling blood glucose. It has to be stressed that self-medication in the case of insulin administration should follow the guidelines laid down by a healthcare professional, as well as regular blood glucose monitoring for dosage accuracy.
One can administer it using syringes or pens or even through pumps that have been designed to help in the management of blood glucose levels. The healthcare provider will work with you to determine which method is best suited for your needs.
Educating older adults on signs and symptoms of hyper- or hypoglycemia and reiterating the importance of regular meal patterns in promoting the stability of these diabetes-related conditions may also help.
