ACTIVITY DESCRIPTION
Jacob is a 72-year-old male hospitalized six months ago with new onset diabetes type 2 while experiencing diabetic ketoacidosis. His blood glucose was 543 on admission and he was started on insulin therapy. He saw the Endocrinologist three months ago, and his HgbA1C was 8.8. Medications were adjusted at that time and diabetes education was initiated. A few weeks ago, he returned to the endocrinologist and still had elevated blood glucose readings, despite being adamant that he is strictly following the prescribed diet. Today, Jacob has a telehealth visit with the diabetes education clinic.
