Diabetes in Schools
LVN Training
By:
Cata Ingalls
Jan Okimura
Nina Withers
At the end of this lesson, the learner should
be able to:
 Define Diabetes Type I and factors affecting blood glucose levels.
 Apply the laws affecting students with medical conditions and disabilities
 Classify the Six Rights of Medication Administration.
 Familiarize and accurately read the new Diabetes Medical Management
Plan (DMMP).
Objectives continued
 Differentiate between hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia and its
signs and symptoms.
 Understand and apply Emergency Care Plans, when needed
 Successfully monitor blood glucose, administer insulin via
syringe and pen, deliver glucagon during emergency, calculate
carbohydrate, and to determine amount of insulin based on
carb:insulin ratio and/or BG correction.
 Check ketones in urine, if needed.
 Document accurately using Meal worksheets and Diabetes
Monitor Log for Schools.
Statistics
 Diabetes is the 7th leading cause of death in the
US
 9.3 % of the American Population have diabetes
 This is up 1% from 2010
From the National Diabetes Statistics June 2014
LAWS
Laws affecting students
(all students, not just students who
have diabetes):
• Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973
• Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990
• IDEA- Individuals with Disabilities Education
Act of 2006
Other Laws affecting students:
• FERPA- Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act. This is a
federal law that protects the privacy of student educational
records
• HIPAA- Health Insurance Portability and Accountability. This
law assures that individuals’ health information is properly
protected while allowing the flow of health information needed
to promote high quality health care.
Basic Diabetes Information
From YouTube Video on Diabetes Made Simple
At School we cannot give medications or perform
procedures unless we have doctors orders
Once we have orders the
School Nurse will develop a
Health Care Plan
You cannot legally deviate
from the orders or the
Health Care Plan
When we have orders AND a
Health Care Plan you may
administer medication
and/or perform a procedure

HYPOGLYCEMIA (Low Blood Sugar)
If conscious and able to swallow:
If blood glucose is < 80 mg/dl, give 15 grams of carbohydrates and recheck blood glucose in 15 minutes.
Repeat until blood glucose is > 80mg/dl.
If unconscious or having seizure, give Glucagon injection IM:
0.5 mg
1.0 mg
If Glucagon is indicated, administer it simultaneously while calling 911 and the parents/guardians.
HYPERGLYCEMIA (High Blood Sugar)
Check urine ketones if blood glucose > 350 mg/dl.
Give insulin per sliding scale orders (DO NOT USE WITHIN 3 HOURS OF PREVIOUS INSULIN DOSE).
 IF KETONES are MODERATE or LARGE and student has symptoms, student will be sent home.

 Six Rights of Medication Administration
• Right Patient
• Right Dose
• Right Medication
• Right Time
• Right Route
• Right Documentation
 New Diabetes Medical Management Plan – Doctor’s
Orders developed in collaboration with Kaiser,
Sutter & UCDMC
LVN Scope of Practice
• Business & Professions code, Section 2859, LVN’s work
under the direction of a RN
• must report data to RN
• Title 16, Section 2518.5, LVN does not initiate, evaluate
or change the student’s treatment/nursing care plan
• No Rx changes from parents/verbal orders
• Any problem, call your school nurse. If not available,
call Health programs. Jan R. will be able to connect you
with another nurse
• RN’s must decide if student can be independent
• Document/log results (BG, amount of insulin, amount of
carbohydrates, ketones, site, etc.) appropriately
Review of Procedures
• Using skills checklist
•Blood glucose check (cannot share glucometers & strips)
• If child has no strips, he/she will be sent home
• Insulin administration
• Syringe
• Pen
• Pump
• Glucagon Administration
• Carbohydrate/Insulin ratio calculation
• Urine ketone check
DOCUMENTATION
• Each student you are providing care to should have an
individual binder which should include the following:
• DMMP
• Emergency Care Plan
• Monitor Log
• Meal Worksheets (breakfast & lunch)
• Documentation must be done right after each intervention,
before leaving the premise.
• NOT DOCUMENTED = NOT DONE

Meal Worksheet
cont.
• Meal Worksheets will be provided by your school nurse,
reflecting Doctor’s orders
• One worksheet per meal
• Breakfast meal worksheet (if applicable) is different from
Lunch meal worksheet (make sure you use the correct form)
• Calculation/amount of insulin drawn must be verified &
