Diabetes – lifelong condition requiring daily management

Diabetes affects the body’s ability to regulate blood sugar and, if left unmanaged, can lead to severe health complications including vision problems, kidney disease, and heart issues. Daily monitoring and lifestyle adjustments are essential to avoid dangerous spikes or drops in blood sugar.
PCCS caregivers support clients living with diabetes by assisting with blood sugar monitoring, medication reminders, healthy meal planning, and exercise encouragement. By promoting consistency and safety, our caregivers help individuals manage diabetes while preserving independence and reducing health risks.
