#65 Talking 504 Plans with D-Mom Jill
Getting a 504 plan is easier than you think and its super important!
Sure perhaps when you hear 504 plan it doesn't sound too exciting, but you know what is exciting? Proper care for your chid while they are at school. Type 1 diabetes is a 24 hour a day disease and no one can afford to ignore a third of those hours just because they happen at school. There is however a way to maintain the level of care that you have at home while you little (or not so little) one is away at school - get a 504 plan! And it's easier than you think.
There is a bunch of info on Arden's Day about 504 plans. Click on the search bar at the top of the page and search "504" for everything I've written including a downloadable version of Arden's 504 plan. And this is a direct link to her most recent plan.

#40 Anisha Dharshi is the Director of Type 1 Diabetes at the ADA
American Diabetes Association type 1 program director Anisha Dharshi is on the program to talk about her diabetes, the ADA, her family, 1-800-DIABETES and more...
Anisha Dharshi is a person living with type 1 diabetes who happens to also be the director of type 1 diabetes programs for the American Diabetes Association. Anisha holds a Masters in Public Health from Johns Hopkins and has focused her career on working in healthcare. She has worked for the British Medical Journal, the Institute of Medicine and the National Quality Forum. Anisha's entire family lives with diabetes; her sister has Type 1, her father was diagnosed with T1 late in life and her mother has type 2 diabetes.
Anisha may have a serious life and a serious education but she is a light-hearted and upbeat individual who is crazy fun to talk to. I get it if you initially hear that the Director of Programs from the ADA is the guest on episode 40 and think, "boring"... but no, no... Anisha rocks! Interesting aside, spellcheck changes her name every time you type it, this took three times as long to write because of that... :)
