“…A summary of prescription data on available pharmaceutical alternatives for individuals with poor renal function and the elderly. Even though pioglitazone might be a treatment alternative in places where it is now accessible, the danger of fluid retention and abrupt heart failure prevents its widespread usage 75,44 . In individuals who are not well managed or for whom oral medications are inappropriate, insulin treatment may be required.…”

Although diabetes care has been widely established as a single entity, data in older, frail individuals with numerous comorbidities and have limited polymedication. This group accounts for a sizable number of nursing home residents (NHs). We came together as a group of experts with multidisciplinary (endocrinologists, geriatricians, Nurses staff, general practitioners and diabetologists) with real-world practice in this field, which is becoming more and more important globally, to compile practical, straightforward guidance on the managing of senior, fragile patients of diabetes. An Individual Care Plan (ICP), which is presented in layman's terms, is the cornerstone of a patient's diabetes treatment. This is due to the demands placed on personnel of NH (medical coordinator, manager, nurses, and caregiver working at the front lines, and the other caregiver worker which is under training). The actual purpose of this document, which is released when the patient is admitted, is to made prescriptions ensure that given at and followed after admission. It details the need for proper treatment, regular monitoring, and dates and times for essential examinations and testing. This entails keeping tabs on the patient's HbA1c, as well as their blood and urine glucose levels and any complications that may arise from the condition (hypoglycemia, cardiovascular disease, foot disorders, ocular problems, malnutrition, kidney failure and peripheral neuropathy). Consequentially, staff education on the unique challenges of care for an elderly person with diabetes, emergency procedures, and maintaining an up-to-date ICP for use by medical professionals is essential.

Background/Objectives: Diabetes camps for children and adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes mellitus (T1DM) offer the opportunity to have a camping experience in a safe and supportive environment where they can receive diabetes skills education, such as glucose self-monitoring, insulin injections, management of hypoglycemia/hyperglycemia, and nutritional recommendations, including meal planning and carbohydrate counting. The ultimate goal of diabetes camps is to educate children to manage their condition independently, without parental involvement. Additionally, attending a diabetes camp is an excellent opportunity to meet peers and share their experiences and concerns about their condition, enhancing their confidence and reducing diabetes-related emotional distress. The aim of this review was to assess whether the nutritional planning and education offered at diabetes camps has a favorable effect on the glycemic control of attending children and adolescents. Methods: A literature search in PubMed and Scopus databases was performed. Eligible for inclusion were studies evaluating the effect of nutritional education offered in diabetes camps on glycemic control of children and adolescents with T1DM. Results: The majority of identified eligible studies supported the beneficial impact of the nutritional education offered in diabetes camps on glycemic control during and after the camp sessions. The favorable effect, though, seemed to be temporarily sustained (<6 months). Conclusions: Continuous nutritional education is required to prolong the duration of these beneficial outcomes. Further interventional studies are required to evaluate the direct effect of nutritional education provided at diabetes camps on glycemic control of children and adolescents with T1DM and the actual duration of favorable outcomes.
