\nDiabetes is an endocrine system disorder that affects millions of children and adults (ADA, 2011). If left untreated, diabetic patients are at risk for several alterations including heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, neuropathy, and blindness. There are various methods for treating diabetes, many of which include some form of drug therapy. The type of diabetes as well as the patient?s behavior factors will impact treatment recommendations. In this Assignment, you compare types of diabetes including drug treatments for type 1, type 2, gestational, and juvenile diabetes.

\nReflect on differences between types of diabetes including type 1, type 2, gestational, and juvenile diabetes.
\nSelect one type of diabetes.
\nConsider one type of drug used to treat the type of diabetes you selected including proper preparation and administration of this drug. Then, reflect on dietary considerations related to treatment.
\nThink about the short-term and long-term impact of the diabetes you selected on patients including effects of drug treatments.

\nTotal Points for Assignment:
\nPlease copy and paste this rubric table at the end of all Application Assignments in order for your
\nassignment to be graded.
\nGuidance for Application Assignments:
\nApplication Assignments require a title page, introduction, body of the paper, conclusion, and reference
\npage. The title page needs to follows APA style and includes a title, student name, course number and
\nsection, and date. An abstract is not required. APA style headings are to be used appropriately to
\nseparate and organize sections of the paper. The use of direct quotes is discouraged and should only be
\nused when the source material uses language that is particularly striking or notable. The introduction
\nshould provide an overview of the topic, the purpose of the paper, and topics that will be addressed. The
\nbody of the paper needs to address all required topics. The conclusion ought to provide closure for the
\nreader, synthesize the content, and tie everything together to help clarify the main points of the paper.
\nThe reference page should include all references cited in the assignment in correct APA format.. Some
\ncourse assignments may require the use of more than 2 credible outside resources. In these cases, the
\nminimum outside sources specified in the instructions for the assignment will be applied in the grading of
\nthese course assignments. Credible sources include scholarly peer-reviewed journal articles, evidence
\nbased resources, and professional (.org), educational (.edu), and government websites (.gov).
\nCommercial websites (.com) are not considered credible sources. Please note: When selecting articles
\nfor course assignments, you are advised (unless you are referencing seminal information) to focus on
\nwork published within the past five years.
\nLate Policies:
\nAssignments submitted late without prior agreement of the Instructor, outside of an emergency absence,
\nor in violation of agreements for late submission, will receive a grade reduction for the Assignment
\namounting to a 20% point loss. After 5 days, the Assignment will not be graded. Students should be
\naware that late Assignments may not receive the same level of written feedback as do Assignments
