A type 1 diabetes checklist for school days

School days move fast, and the diabetes routine still has to happen — lunchtime checks, snacks, supplies in the bag. A shared checklist keeps every step on your child’s device so nothing slips between home, the classroom, and the nurse’s office.

The school-day routine, on their device

Build a School care window with the exact steps for the day and open it on your child’s phone or tablet. They check items off; you see the same list in sync, so “did you do your lunch check?” has an answer already.

Critical steps that stand out

Mark blood sugar checks, insulin, and low-treatment supplies as critical so they’re impossible to miss. If a critical step in an earlier window gets skipped, it rolls forward instead of quietly falling off the day.

Works alongside a 504 plan

A 504 plan sets the accommodations; this keeps the day-to-day steps consistent. See the companion 504 plan checklist for more.
