How To Manage Your Type II Diabetes

This technical manual is a summary of research exploring the ways to properly recognize and manage type II diabetes. I completed this piece for a Professional Writing course and was valuable in learning how to guide individuals on how to prevent, manage, and live with type II diabetes. This piece is pretty lengthy, consisting of 36 pages, but it is definitely worth the read. This piece goes into detail on all areas relating to type II diabetes such as what it is, risk factors, symptoms, diagnostics, prevention methods, etc.

This piece showcases my ability to:

• Find research articles using electronic databases
• Summarize research articles and determine what information is the most valuable
• Write for an academic setting

Completing this technical manual allowed me to learn more about this chronic disease, a subject I had little knowledge about prior to this assignment. As I move forward with my career, I hope to do more to help individuals diagnosed with chronic illnesses.
