Type 1 diabetes in youth is common and often difficult to manage due to developmental, psychosocial, and social determinant-related challenges, leading to poor glycemic control and serious health risks. Adolescents require support that extends beyond clinic visits, making collaboration between healthcare providers, especially APRNs and school nurses, essential. The case study of JT illustrates how consistent communication and coordinated care across school, home, and clinical settings can identify barriers, improve safety, and stabilize glycemic and mental health outcomes. Strengthening APRN-school nurse partnerships and integrating school-based care into standard practice can enhance long-term management and quality of life for youth with T1DM.
