New CareSens Air continuous glucose monitor transforms diabetes management for busy mum

A busy mum with type 1 diabetes says the revolutionary CareSens Air continuous glucose monitor (CGM) has given her the freedom to manage her condition effortlessly. 

As one of the first people to trial the CareSens Air device in the UK, Dani, who was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at the age of 10, has spent years balancing her health with the demands of being a working mum of three.

The CareSens Air is a 15-day wearable CGM that delivers real-time glucose readings directly to a smartphone, providing instant access to vital health data.

Dani said: "I like to control my life and don’t want diabetes to control it – CareSens Air is helping me to do that for the first time.

"I don’t have to think about scanning or doing finger-prick tests anymore. I just glance at my phone, and my glucose reading is there instantly. It’s taken away a huge mental burden."

The CareSens Air offers advanced features that enhance diabetes management, including real-time glucose monitoring, a user-friendly app, and a discreet, comfortable sensor.

With an unpredictable schedule working in a pub, Dani often struggled to monitor her glucose levels effectively. "You never know if you’ll get a break, so it’s hard to plan when to eat or adjust insulin," she explained. "With CareSens Air, I can check my levels on the go and make adjustments instantly, which has massively improved my control."

The device’s discreet design and strong adhesive have also made a significant impact. "It’s so small and light, I barely notice it’s there. My previous sensor was bulkier and sometimes got knocked off, but CareSens Air stays in place – even when I’m at the gym.”

Selma Abed, Head of Optimisation at Spirit Health, said: "At Spirit Health, we are committed to providing solutions that empower people living with diabetes to manage their condition with confidence. Dani’s experience shows how CareSens Air is helping individuals stay in control, even in the busiest of lifestyles."

As part of its ongoing mission to improve diabetes care, Spirit Health continues to refine its offerings based on real-world user feedback, ensuring that people like Dani can manage their diabetes with greater ease and confidence.
