Diabetes and insulin injections
Injections, blood-glucose checks, foot monitoring, learning the technique.
Who it is for
People with diabetes who cannot perform their own injections, temporarily or long term.
How we work
- Visits at a regular time, a condition for stable blood-glucose control.
- Checks on equipment, insulin storage and rotation of injection sites.
- Foot inspection at every visit: most avoidable complications start there.
- If you or a relative want to learn the technique, we support that learning without pushing it.
Common questions about this care
- Do you come before meals?
- Yes. Injection times are set around your meals; the round plan adapts to that, not the other way round.
- Can I learn to inject myself?
- Many people do. We support that learning at your own pace, never impose it, and remain available afterwards.
- Do you also check my feet?
- At every single visit. Most diabetic foot complications are prevented by looking regularly.
