Diabetes Management
Diabetes is a chronic medical condition that requires careful planning and support. In middle school, most children will transition to managing their diabetes themselves, depending on maturity and how long they have had diabetes, with the support of the school nurse and educational staff. It is important for families of students with diabetes to work with the school to develop a care plan to ensure a safe, healthy, enjoyable learning experience. The forms below should be filled out by the student's parents/guardians and their home physician and returned to the nurse's office.
