Introduction:
Diabetes refers to group of certain metabolic problems caused either by low or no insulin secretion by pancreas or no response by insulin receptors to glucose binding insulin molecules. The disease is also known as diabetes mellitus and has three different types (type 1, type 2, gestational). It is a major problem and significantly affected the health of large population of Australia. Indigenous people tend to experience this problem in earlier age as compared to other Australians and can have excess of complications. Gestational diabetes is also found to be far common in aboriginals than in non-indigenous Australians. Different factors that are responsible for diabetes among aboriginal people include genetic susceptibility, …show more content…
Number of limitations surround a diabetes patient and make his/her life conserved. Restrictions on food quantity, items and ingredients bind him even in diet, which could be considered as a worst curse for a person. As a result, a person becomes unable to attend the parties and occasions, thus, detach from society and relatives.

It is very important to discuss about the implications of nursing domain. Implications just not to know about the disease and how to manage the disease, it also require understanding the occurrence of disease, its endemic, pandemic and causes of disease. Many health programmes are launched to raise awareness among nurses to teach them about the different aspects of health rather than only physical health. Nurses provide patients with better care and facilities to cope with their illness. Diabetes is caused due to environmental and genetic factors, such as lifestyle, polluted environment, tension, fast food. This type of trend is usually found in developing countries, although Australia is a developed country but aboriginal Australians are more suffered from diabetes due to some social effects like alcohol consumption, poverty, physical inactivity and poor diet.
