Diabetes is a serious disease that affects many older adults. An estimated 33% of adults aged 65 or older have diabetes. Older adults with diabetes are at higher risk of developing complications such as hypoglycemia, kidney failure, and heart disease. This program was developed to assist you in identifying signs and symptoms of hypo/hyperglycemia and how to manage the resident’s care.
Objectives:
- Identify risk factors associated with diabetes
- Define what diabetes is and its impact on the body
- Identify what and when to document
