I'm a caregiver

Caregiver Support

You want to help without taking over. These guides come from parents, partners, and siblings who worked out the balance the hard way.

Support without hovering

How to offer help in a way that lands: ask before checking numbers, agree on what a 'flag me' moment is, and let small highs pass.

Knowing the real emergencies

Severe hypoglycaemia and DKA warning signs, glucagon steps, and when to call for help — printable and fridge-ready.

School, sitters, and sleepovers

A one-page handover sheet covering targets, snacks, care-team instructions, and who to call, so other adults aren't guessing.

Sharing the mental load

Trading off night checks, supply runs, and appointment prep so the person with diabetes isn't the only project manager.

Talking about food

Why commenting on carbs backfires, and better ways to be helpful at the dinner table.

Caring for yourself too

Caregiver fatigue is real. Signs to watch for and where to find peer support that isn't a forum shouting match.

How Care View works

Care View is a local, read-only mode on the same device. NutriScan does not provide remote account sharing, invites, or live caregiver access in this version.

Track your self-logged carbs, glucose, meals, and treatments. Always follow your care team's guidance for treatment and dosing decisions.
