摘要：
Busy primary care providers are in the frontline and see the bulk of older adults with diabetes. This vulnerable population is more prone to diabetic complications and hypoglycemia. In contrast to the younger patients with diabetes, lifestyle interventions are even more effective in older adults while the target A1c levels may need to be more relaxed for frail individuals. Geriatric syndromes can adversely affect diabetes care. A team with experts in different fields who understand the needs of older adults is essential for the adequate quality care of the whole individual with diabetes.
