Managing diabetes in a hospital setting requires a multidisciplinary approach to address the complex needs of individuals with diabetes. From diagnosis to treatment and ongoing care, a comprehensive diabetes program aims to provide personalized and integrated care.

Diagnosis and Assessment:

1. Accurate diagnosis through blood tests and other diagnostic tools.
2. Assessment of the patient's overall health, including potential complications related to diabetes.
3. Identification of specific type of diabetes (Type 1, Type 2, gestational, etc.).

Medical Management:

1. Medication administration and management to control blood glucose levels.
2. Insulin therapy, if necessary, with personalized dosage adjustments.
3. Monitoring and addressing potential side effects or complications related to medications.

Nutritional Support:

1. Collaborative efforts with dietitians to create personalized meal plans.
2. Monitoring and managing nutrition to regulate blood sugar levels.
3. Education on carbohydrate counting and meal timing.

Blood Glucose Monitoring:

1. Regular monitoring of blood glucose levels to adjust treatment plans.
2. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) for real-time data in some cases.
3. Educating patients on self-monitoring and interpretation of results.

By combining various healthcare disciplines, we ensure that individuals with diabetes receive the support they need for effective management and improved overall well-being.
