Frequently Asked Questions | Chronic Disease Management Brisbane

Can a nurse help me manage diabetes alongside my disability in Brisbane?
Yes. Glucose monitoring, insulin support, foot checks and education happen at home, coordinated with your GP and diabetes clinic. The aim is a stable routine you or your workers can run, with the nurse watching trends and stepping in when the pattern shifts.
How does nurse monitoring reduce hospital admissions?
By catching deterioration while it is still an appointment rather than an ambulance. A worsening breathing pattern or a creeping glucose trend, noticed a fortnight early and taken to the GP, is frequently the difference between an adjusted script and a week at the Royal Brisbane.
