Diabetes Medical Management Plan (DMMP) 

This plan should be completed by the student’s personal diabetes health care team, including the parents/guardian. It should be reviewed with relevant school staff and copies should be kept in a place that can be accessed easily by the school nurse, trained diabetes personnel, and other authorized personnel.

CHECKING BLOOD GLUCOSE
Target range of blood glucose:	70-130 mg/dL     70-180 mg/dL
 Other: 	
Check blood glucose level:  Before lunch 	Hours after lunch
 2 hours after a correction dose   Mid-morning   Before PE	   After PE
 Before dismissal    Other:	
 As needed for signs/symptoms of low or high blood glucose
 As needed for signs/symptoms of illness
Preferred site of testing:   Fingertip  Forearm  Thigh  Other: 	
Brand/Model of blood glucose meter:	
Note: The ,fingertip should always be used to check blood glucose level if hypoglycemia is suspected.
Student's self-care blood glucose checking skills:
 Independently checks own blood glucose
 May check blood glucose with supervision
 Requires school nurse or trained diabetes personnel to check blood glucose 

Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM):  Yes  No
Brand/Model: _____________________	Alarms set for: (low) and (high)

Note: Confirm CGM results with blood glucose meter check before taking action on sensor blood glucose level. If student has symptoms or signs of hypoglycemia, check fingertip blood glucose level regardless of CGM
HYPOGLYCEMIA TREATMENT
Student's usual symptoms of hypoglycemia (list below):
If exhibiting symptoms of hypoglycemia, OR if blood glucose level is less than
	mg/dL, give a quick-acting glucose product equal to	grams of carbohydrate.
Recheck blood glucose in 10-15 minutes and repeat treatment if blood glucose level is less than	mg/dL.
Additional treatment:

Diabetes Medical Management Plan (DMMP) — Page 3 HYPOGLYCEMIA TREATMENT (Continued)
Follow physical activity and sports orders (see page 7).
•	If the student is unable to eat or drink, is unconscious or unresponsive, or is having seizure activity or convulsions (jerking movements), give:
•	Glucagon:  1 mg   1/2 mg	Route:  SC  IM
•	Site for glucagon injection:   arm   thigh   Other: ___________________	
•	Call 911 (Emergency Medical Services) and the student's parents/guardian.
•	Contact student's health care provider.
HYPERGLYCEMIA TREATMENT
Student's usual symptoms of hyperglycemia (list below):
Check   Urine   Blood for ketones every	hours when blood glucose levels
are above	mg/dL.
For blood glucose greater than	mg/dL AND at least	hours since last insulin
dose, give correction dose of insulin (see orders below).
For insulin pump users: see additional information for student with insulin pump.
Give extra water and/or non-sugar-containing drinks (not fruit juices):	ounces per
hour.
Additional treatment for ketones:
Follow physical activity and sports orders (see page 7).
•	Notify parents/guardian of onset of hyperglycemia.
•	If the student has symptoms of a hyperglycemia emergency, including dry mouth, extreme thirst, nausea and vomiting, severe abdominal pain, heavy breathing or shortness of breath, chest pain, increasing sleepiness or lethargy, or depressed level of consciousness: Call 911 (Emergency Medical Services) and the student's parents/
guardian.
•	Contact student's health care provider.

 Fixed Insulin Therapy
 No insulin
Adjustable Insulin Therapy
•	Carbohydrate Coverage/Correction Dose: Name of insulin:
•	Carbohydrate Coverage: Insulin-to-Carbohydrate Ratio:
 Lunch: 1 unit of insulin per		grams of carbohydrate
 Snack: 1 unit of insulin per		grams of carbohydrate

Grams of carbohydrate in meal
Insulin-to-carbohydrate ratio

Carbohydrate Dose Calculation Example 
             
                               =  ______ units of insulin    	
•	Correction Dose:

Correction Dose Calculation Example Actual Blood Glucose—Target Blood Glucose

Blood Glucose Correction Factor/Insulin Sensitivity Factor = Target blood glucose =          mg/dL

Blood Glucose Correction Factor/Insulin Sensitivity Factor

= _______units of insulin

Correction dose scale (use instead of calculation above to determine insulin correction dose):
Blood glucose	to	mg/dL	give	units	
Blood glucose	to	mg/dL	give	units	
Blood glucose	to	mg/dL	give	units	
Blood glucose	to	mg/dL	give	units
