STATEPOINT MEDIA â More than 34 million Americans are living with diabetes, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and 90-95% of those diagnosed have type 2 diabetes. With many Americans having deferred medical care since the start of the pandemic, delayed or overdue diabetes diagnoses are expected in the coming months. Experts encourage those living with diabetes and their loved ones to navigate the disease head-on and with confidence.
âInstructions given to those with a new diabetes diagnosis at the hospital are often one-size-fits-all and can feel rigid, so itâs fairly typical for a diagnosis to be met with some resistance or even denial at first,â said Jennifer Sheets, president and CEO of Interim HealthCare Inc., a network of home health care, personal care, health care staffing and hospice services.
