Everyone needs a team to successfully manage diabetes. Typically your team is made up of friends, family, co-workers, doctors, nurses, educators and teachers. In fact, people in the mygluco community say that the tools at mygluco are one of the most important members of their team.

Social Network Members
Many people care about another person's health more than they care about their own. Not such a bad deal when people are working together to help each other. Social network members are part of the patients training team. They are invited by the patient to participate in a healthy lifestyle program.

You will find that our Virtual-Loop technology makes it easy to be somebody's partner in intensive management utilizing automated alerts, reminders and reports allowing you to be a valuable just-in-time coach. It's also made easier since intensive management is not an all day every day program. It works best when utilized periodically for short periods of time.

The power of social networks is realized when the right information goes to the right person at the right time and in the right format. For you, that might just mean a text message on your phone indicating that now would be a good time to call your friend and congratulate him on his efforts. The GlucoDYNAMIX software figures out when it is a good time to engage the team, and which team members to involve.
