A message from the International School Nurses Association.

At ACEESE, we want to use 14 November – World Diabetes Day to remind everyone that schools are key places for health and care. When there is a school nurse, children with diabetes are safer and learn to manage insulin, sensors and blood glucose meters independently, while their classmates better understand what it means to live with the condition. From an early age, healthy habits – nutrition, physical activity and self-care – are built and reinforced with a nurse by their side. Raising awareness in the classroom means planting health for life.
