Case: SP, a 56-year-old client with Type 2 Diabetes, was admitted to the medical-surgical unit for management of a stage 3 ulcer on her right heel. Although she is compliant with her diabetic medication routine and adheres to her prescribed diet, she still struggles with keeping her blood sugar within a normal range. SP tells the nurse that she works on a production line in a factory. She states "I work such long hours that by the time I get home, I'm tired. I'm just worn out. I also find that I am going slower on the production line because my eyesight is getting worse." On admission, her vital signs are: Temp 36, HR 86, RR 20, BP 143/90, O2 Sat 96%, blood glucose 13.5mmol/L.
