Managing diabetes requires exceptional care and expertise. Hospitalized people living with diabetes face heightened safety risks including amputation and other complications such as coma and death if mistakes are made in their daily care. The Recognized Leaders in Caring for People Living with Diabetes award recognizes each hospital’s strong commitment to the safety and well-being of hospitalized people living with diabetes—estimated to be 30% of all people who are inpatient nationwide.
