Management of glycaemia and cardiovascular risk for people with diabetes
1. People with diabetes should agree with their health care professionals to start, review and stop medication as appropriate to manage their cardiovascular risk, blood glucose and other health issues. They should have access to glucose monitoring devices appropriate to their needs.
2. People with diabetes should be offered blood pressure, blood lipid and anti-platelet therapy to lower cardiovascular risk when required in accordance with current recommendations.
3. When insulin is required it should be initiated by trained health care professionals within a structured programme that, whenever possible, includes education in dose titration for the person with diabetes.
4. People with diabetes who do not achieve their agreed targets should have access to appropriate (and timely) expert help.
