[QUOTE="Lakeslover, post: 2693891, member: 541354"] I’m type 2 not type 1 so I can’t comment on the insulin, but I do use libre 2 sensors. I haven’t had one fail for well over a year. Where does your dad place them? Could he be partially dislodging them? Could he be lying heavily on them or sweating in bed causing the glue to fail? I use a tegaderm plaster to keep mine stuck, and less likely to lift if I knock them. steep rises or falls can cause the sensor to say unavailable wait 10 mins. I have found waiting at least that long is best. Repeated scans in the 10 minute period can then give a sensor failed message. with the powers of attorney could you introduce it by saying you are looking to the future and doing yours, and that it would be good for them to do so to? The last one I did for my mum took well over 6 months to be processed so the sooner the better. [/QUOTE]
