Diabetes Management

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease which cannot be cured except in very specific situations. Diabetes Management concentrates on keeping blood sugar levels as close to normal ("euglycemia") as possible, without causing hypoglycemia. This can usually be accomplished with diet, exercise, and use of appropriate medications (insulin in the case of type 1 diabetes, oral medications, as well as possibly insulin, in type 2 diabetes).

Employee education, understanding, and participation is vital, since the complications of diabetes are far less common and less severe in people who have well-managed blood sugar levels. The goal of treatment is an HbA1C level of 6.5%, but should not be lower than that, and may be set higher. Attention is also paid to other health problems that may accelerate the deleterious effects of diabetes. These include tobacco smoking; hypercholesterolemia elevated cholesterol levels, obesity, hypertension high blood pressure, and lack of regular exercise.
