Tip of the Week:
Summer is here and so is vacation packing anxiety. In addition to making sure you include swimsuits, sunscreen, and snorkle, if someone in your family has type 1 diabetes, you have a lot of other supplies to pack. Here are some tips to ease your packing stress so you can concentrate on building sandcastles and snapping photos instead of stressing about where you packed the lancets. Find more like this in the HealthSims Type 1 Diabetes training course.
Pack insulin and other diabetes supplies across multiple people’s carry-on luggage, so that if someone loses a bag, you don’t lose all of your supplies. Also, take copies of your prescriptions for critical supplies, and always bring with you the contact information for your physician(s), diabetes educator, clinic, and/or any other people who are involved in your diabetes care.
