Blood glucose monitoring guidance

This document is intended to serve as a helpful resource for healthcare professionals working with people with diabetes, those who prescribe self-monitoring equipment, and for commissioners and designers of services.

This guidance was written by Training, Research and Education for Nurses in Diabetes (TREND UK). Other organisations representing people with diabetes and those who support them have been involved in the development of the guidance via a process of review.

When implementing this guidance, full account should be taken of the local context and any action taken should be in line with statutory obligations required of the organisation and individual. No part of this guidance should be interpreted in a way that would knowingly put anybody at risk.
