Children with Diabetes: Perceptions of Supports for Self- Management at School.
Nabors, Laura; Lehmkuhl, Heather; Christos, Nicole; Andreone, Teresa L.
Journal of School Health, v73 n6 p216-21 Aug 2003
Surveyed and interviewed children and adolescents with diabetes regarding the types of support they needed at school. Children felt supported at school and offered many ideas about how teachers, nurses, and friends could provide support. They reported needing additional support to cope with hypoglycemic episodes. Results suggest that improved flexibility by teachers and nurses and individualized care plans could improve students' ability to manage their diabetes at school. (SM)
