1. People with diabetes admitted to hospital for any reason should be cared for by appropriately trained staff, and provided access to an expert diabetes team when necessary. They should be given the choice of self-monitoring and encouraged to manage their own insulin whenever clinically appropriate.
2. People with diabetes admitted as a result of uncontrolled diabetes or with diabetic ketoacidosis should receive educational support before discharge and follow-up arranged by their GP and/or a specialist diabetes team.
3. People with diabetes who have experienced severe hypoglycaemia requiring emergency department attendance or admission should be actively followed up and managed to reduce the risk of recurrence and readmission.
