Understanding the condition
Diabetes now affects more than two and a half million Moroccans, and its prevalence is rising rapidly in Marrakech under the effect of sedentary lifestyles and diet. Whether type 1 or type 2, it imposes a demanding daily routine: blood glucose monitoring, insulin injections at fixed times, careful attention to diet and meticulous foot care. Poorly controlled, it exposes the patient to serious complications - damage to the retina, kidney damage, diabetic foot ulcers, cardiovascular events. Many elderly or isolated patients struggle to keep up this rigorous follow-up on their own. Our qualified nurses, employed by SOS Nursing, travel to your home across every district of Marrakech to secure this daily monitoring, in close liaison with your treating physician or your diabetes specialist.

Home nursing services specifically tailored to your medical situation.
Why home care for Diabetes Home Nursing
Regular nursing follow-up at home improves blood sugar control, strengthens treatment adherence and makes it possible to detect complications early, before they lead to hospitalisation.
What the nurse does at every visit
Capillary blood glucose check with a calibrated meter, insulin injection with site rotation, inspection of the feet to look for any wounds, verification of the prescription and recording of the readings in the monitoring logbook.
Visit frequency and monitoring
Daily visits, morning and/or evening, for as long as blood sugar is not yet stable, then a gradual spacing out. The glucose logbook and the weight chart are kept up to date at every visit.
Coordination with your treating physician
Blood glucose readings, HbA1c and any episodes of hypoglycaemia are passed on to your physician or diabetes specialist. Any adjustment of insulin doses is made solely on a medical prescription.
Equipment and home monitoring
Glucose meter, test strips, single-use pens and needles, and a clinical sharps container for the safe disposal of needles. The nurse also monitors blood pressure and the condition of the feet.
The family's role between visits
We train relatives to recognise hypoglycaemia and to give fast-acting sugar, to store insulin in the refrigerator, to respect meal times and to report any foot wound.
AMO / CNSS coverage
Diabetes is recognised as a long-term illness (ALD): nursing care coded as AMI nursing acts (NGAP coding) qualifies for AMO/CNSS reimbursement. Each visit gives rise to a compliant coded receipt and a signed care record.
