Blood Glucose Monitoring and Medication Management
Proper medication management and blood glucose monitoring are the cornerstones of effective diabetes care. Our experienced nursing team provides hands-on support to ensure your treatment plan is followed safely and consistently.
- Blood Glucose Monitoring: We’ll help you master the art of checking and recording your blood sugar levels using a glucometer, following your personalised care plan to track patterns and identify trends that matter to your health.
- Medication Administration: If you need support with oral medications or insulin injections, our qualified nurses ensure every dose is administered safely and according to your doctor’s prescription, giving you peace of mind.
- Insulin Management: From precise dose measurement to proper injection technique and site rotation, we’ll guide you through every aspect of insulin administration, helping you build confidence in managing this crucial part of your NDIS diabetes management.
- Monitoring for Hypoglycaemia/Hyperglycaemia: Our trained staff know exactly what to look for – from shakiness and sweating that signals low blood sugar to increased thirst and fatigue that indicates high levels. We’re here to respond quickly and appropriately when these situations arise.
- Medication Adherence: Staying on track with your medications shouldn’t be stressful. We ensure your medications are taken on time and in the correct dosage, creating routines that work with your lifestyle.

Managing diabetes goes beyond medication. It’s also about making healthy choices every day. At Ability Aid Support, we’re here to guide you through those choices with personalised care that helps you live well and stay in control.

- Hydration Support: Staying properly hydrated is simpler than you might think, but it makes a world of difference to your blood sugar control. We’ll help you establish healthy drinking habits that become second nature.
- Exercise Promotion: Movement doesn’t have to mean gruelling gym sessions. Together, we’ll find physical activities you actually enjoy – whether it’s gentle walks, swimming, or chair exercises – all tailored to your abilities and designed to help manage your blood sugar naturally.
- Foot Care: Your feet deserve special attention when managing diabetes. We’ll teach you how to inspect for early warning signs like ulcers or infections, and establish proper foot hygiene routines that prevent serious complications.
- Complication Prevention: Early detection is key to preventing serious health issues. Our vigilant monitoring helps identify symptoms of diabetic neuropathy, kidney problems, and vision changes before they become major concerns.
