SELF MANAGEMENT
CASE MANAGEMENT
KENTUCKY HOMEPLACE
Kentucky Homeplace was created to help address issues of chronic
diseases, such as diabetes. The program offers the support of a
Community Health Worker (CHWs) for individuals who meet the
program's criteria. The CHWs are trained to help medically
underserved residents access appropriate health services. Emphasis is
placed on preventive care, health education and disease selfmanagement. CHWs provide an important bridge between clients with
the greatest needs and the primary care physicians and other health
providers in the community. They facilitate communication between
an individual and primary care physicians, help the clients learn to
effectively comply with medical care instructions, and help educate
clients to improve their health behaviors, such as improved nutrition,
increased physical activity, better weight management, smoking
cessation, and improved diabetes self-management. Call for more
information about services, costs, scheduling and program eligibility.

INFORMATION
Diabetes
&
Prevention
73
What is diabetes?
There are three main types of diabetes:



Type 1 diabetes Your body does not make insulin.
This is a problem because you need insulin to take the
sugar (glucose) from the foods you eat and turn it into
energy for your body. You need to take insulin every
day to live.
Type 2 diabetes Your body does not make or use
insulin well. You may need to take pills or insulin to
help control your diabetes. Type 2 is the most common
type of diabetes.
Gestational (jest-TAY-shun-al) diabetes Some women
get this kind of diabetes when they are pregnant. Most
of the time, it goes away after the baby is born. But even
if it goes away, these women and their children have a
greater chance of getting diabetes later in life.
Diabetes is COMMON and INCREASING

Today, 1 in 10 adult Kentuckians have been diagnosed
with diabetes. In 1995, this number was only 1 in 25!

It is estimated that as many as 1 in 40 Kentucky adults
have diabetes but have not been diagnosed, leaving
them at risk for serious complications.

40 percent of Kentuckians age 40-74 have prediabetes and are at very high risk for developing the
disease (pre-diabetes means blood sugar levels are
elevated but not high enough to be classified as
diabetes).
74
Diabetes is SERIOUS

Diabetes is the leading cause of blindness, kidney failure
and amputations.

Diabetes is the fifth leading cause of death by disease.
Diabetes is CONTROLLABLE

Complications such as heart attack, stroke, blindness,
kidney failure and amputation can be greatly reduced
with proper medical care, good nutrition, modest
physical activity and self-management education.
TYPE 2 Diabetes can be DELAYED or PREVENTED

For those at risk for diabetes, lifestyle changes such
as better nutrition and increased physical activity can
decrease risk by almost 60 percent.
DIABETES SCREENING
Diabetes is diagnosed from a blood test with or without
signs or symptoms of disease. The American Diabetes
Association has outlined the following blood glucose
values to establish a diagnosis of pre-diabetes or
diabetes:
Diagnosis
Normal
Pre-diabetes
Diabetes
Fasting
(without food)
Below 100 mg/dl
100-125 mg/dl
Above 125 mg/dl
2 hour after eating
Below 140 mg/dl
140-199 mg/dl
Above 199 mg/dl
Note: In the absence of signs or symptoms of diabetes, the blood test should be repeated on
a different day.
75
Signs and Symptoms
Of Type 2 Diabetes. Many people have no
signs or symptoms. Symptoms can also be so
mild that you might not even notice them.
Nearly six million people in the United States
have type 2 diabetes and do not know it. Here
is what to look for:







Increased thirst
Increased hunger
Fatigue
Increased urination, especially at night
Weight loss
Blurred vision
Sores that do not heal
What does it mean to have
PRE-DIABETES?
It means that you are at risk for getting
type 2 diabetes and heart disease. The
good news is if you have pre-diabetes you
can reduce the risk of getting diabetes and
even return to normal blood glucose levels.
With modest weight loss and moderate
physical activity you can delay or prevent
type 2 diabetes. If you blood glucose is
higher than normal but lower than the
diabetes range (what we now call prediabetes), have your blood glucose checked
in 1 to 2 years.
76
Keys to Prevention
The key to success is in actually preventing prediabetes and Type 2 diabetes to begin with.
Identifying risk means asking yourself the following
key questions:
 Am I aged 45 years or older?
 Am I overweight?
 Do I have high blood pressure or cholesterol?
 Do I have a family history of diabetes- ?
 Am I African American, Hispanic, American
Indian or Asian?
 Do I have a history of diabetes occurringduring pregnancy?
 Did I deliver a baby weighing more than 9
pounds?
If you answered ‘yes’ to any of the above questions
then you should be screened but also reduce your risk
of pre-diabetes and Type 2 diabetes by implementing
the following:
 Look for opportunities to move more during
the day
 Exercise 30 minutes at least five times per
week
 Eat a healthy meal plan including grains,
cereals, fresh fruit and vegetables, low fat dairy
and lean meat
 Reduce fat intake
 Reduce food portions
 Maintain an ideal body weight, especially
around your waist (Monitor this with a tape
measure)
77
Move more.
Getup, get out and get moving. Try walking,
dancing, bike riding, swimming, or playing ball
with your family or friends. It doesn’t matter
what you do as long as you enjoy it.
Eat the healthy plate way.
Focus on eating less and making healthy food choices. Cut down on
fatty and fried foods. You can still eat the foods
you enjoy, just eat less. When eating a meal, fill
half of your plate with fruits and vegetables, one
quarter with a lean protein, such as beans, or
chicken or turkey without the skin, and one quarter
with a whole grain, such as brown rice or whole
wheat pasta.
78
Take off some weight.
Once you start eating less and moving more, you
will lose weight. If you are just slightly
overweight, or even obese, by losing even 10
pounds, you can cut your chances of getting
diabetes.
Set goals you can meet.
Start by making small changes. Try being active for 15 minutes a day
this week. Then each week add 5 minutes until you build up to 30
minutes, 5 days a week. Try to cut 100 calories out of your diet each
day (that’s one can of soda!). Slowly reduce your calories over time.
Talk to your health care team about your goals.
Record your progress
Write down all the things you eat and drink and
the number of minutes you are active. Keeping a
diary (or using a smart phone diary app) is one of
the best ways to lose weight and keep it off.
Get help.
You don’t have to prevent diabetes alone. Ask
your family and friends to help you out. Involve them in your
activities. You can help each other move more, eat less, and live a
healthier life. There are groups in your county/area that can help, as
well as your health care team.
Keep at it.
Making even small changes is hard in the beginning.
Try adding one new change a week. If you get off
track, start again and keep at it.

Learn about diabetes.
What is diabetes?
There are three main types of diabetes:



Your body does not make
insulin. This is a problem because you need
insulin to take the sugar (glucose) from the foods
you eat and turn it into energy for your body. You
need to take insulin every day to live.
Type 2 diabetes Your body does not make or use
insulin well. You may need to take pills or insulin
to help control your diabetes. Type 2 is the most
common type of diabetes.
Gestational (jest-TAY-shun-al) diabetes Some
women get this kind of diabetes when they are
pregnant. Most of the time, it goes away after the
baby is born. But even if it goes away, these
women and their children have a greater chance
of getting diabetes later in life.

Take diabetes seriously.
You may have heard people say they have touch of
diabetes” or that their “sugar is a little high.” These
words suggest that diabetes is not a serious disease.

People with diabetes need to make healthy food
choices, stay at or get to a healthy weight, move
more every day, and take their medicine even
when they feel good. It’s a lot to do.
It’s not easy, but it’s worth it!

85
Know your diabetes ABCs.
Talk to your health care
team about how to
manage your A1C,
Blood pressure, and
Cholesterol. This can
help lower your chances
of having a heart attack,
stroke, or other diabetes
problems.
A for the A1C test (A-one-C).
What is it?
The A1C is a blood test that measures your average
blood sugar level over the past three months. It is
different from the blood sugar checks you do each
day.
Why is it important?
You need to know your blood sugar levels over
time. You don’t want those numbers to get too
high. High levels of blood sugar can harm your
heart, blood vessels, kidneys, feet, and eyes.
What is the A1C goal?
The A1C goal for many people with diabetes is
below 7. It may be different for you. Ask what
your goal should be.
86
B for Blood pressure.
What is it?
Blood pressure is the force of your blood against
the wall of your blood vessels.
Why is it important?
If your blood pressure gets too high, it makes your
heart work too hard. It can cause a heart attack,
stroke, and damage your kidneys and eyes.
What is the blood pressure goal?
The blood pressure goal for most people with
diabetes is below 140/90. It may be different for
you. Ask what your goal should be.
87
C for Cholesterol (ko-LESS-tuh-ruhl).
What is it?
There are two kinds of cholesterol in your blood: LDL and
HDL.
 LDL or “bad” cholesterol can build up and clog your
blood vessels. It can cause a heart attack or stroke.
 HDL or “good” cholesterol helps remove the “bad”
cholesterol from your blood vessels.
What are the LDL and HDL goals?
Ask what your cholesterol numbers should be. Your
goals may be different from other people. If you are
over 40 years of age, you may need to take a statin
drug for heart health.
Ask your health care team:

what your A1C, blood pressure and
cholesterol numbers are and what they
should be. Your ABC goals will depend on
how long you have had diabetes, other
health problems, and how hard your
diabetes is to manage.

what you can do to reach your AB goals
Write down your numbers on a record like that
included in this booklet to track your progress.

Learn how to live with diabetes.
It is common to feel overwhelmed, sad, or angry when you
are living with diabetes. You may know the steps you should
take to stay healthy, but have trouble sticking with your plan
over time. This section has tips on how to cope with your
diabetes, eat well, and be active.

Set a goal to be more active most
days of the week. Start slow by
