FAM (Follower, Action Plan, and Remote Monitoring) Intervention to Reduce Severe Hyperglycemia in Adults with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus at Risk for Diabetic Ketoacidosis (Aim 3)
Recruiting
People with diabetes and their “Follower” (family member, friend, or caregiver) will participate together in 4+ sessions with a Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist over 90 days. Sessions can be completely virtual (via Zoom) or in person. Participants will receive a personalized Diabetes Action Plan to help navigate the challenges of living with diabetes. The “Follower” (family member, friend, or caregiver) will “follow” blood sugar data in real-time and assist their care partner with diabetes to “troubleshoot” using the Diabetes Action Plan.
