I've had a few problems when the regular staff have been away and at the beginning I found it difficult to get across to them that time is VERY important and meals cannot be delayed or missed.I write down what time to do a bsl and give them a list of possible blood sugar levels and beside each I give a carbohydrate quantity to be given.  This has been the only way I have found to keep Khaleb safe while I am not there as they seem to follow written instructions better than spoken.Anyway, this is what i've done for what is available here.  Hope this helps.Jen</blockquote>
