If a Diabetes patient feels nervous and jittery, the home health aide should first assess the patient's blood sugar level using a glucose meter. If the level is low (hypoglycemia), the aide should provide a fast-acting source of glucose, such as fruit juice or glucose tablets. It's also important to monitor the patient closely and ensure they are safe, while seeking further medical assistance if symptoms persist or worsen.
