Do your work colleagues know what to do if you have a hypo?
Many work places have first aiders but are they always available to help if needed? I'm sure there are times when no first aider is available due to annual leave or meetings etc.
I have suggested to my employer that we have a one page quick guide not just for diabetes but for heart attack and stroke. These can be placed in a prominent location on a wall.
Should a medical emergency occur, of course try and get hold of a first aider but these guides would have the patient get help a bit quicker.
Does anyone have these guides in their workplace?
Do DUK have a one page emergency guide?
