Tasks for Mother Molly:

Molly prepares lunch for Dave she pricks Dave’s finger, and gets his BG reading. She logs into Insul-Ease on her computer and enters Dave’s BG reading and the number of Carbs. She clicks the calculate insulin button, gives Dave a little more Insulin because he was running above BG range, and hits the submit button to save this meal’s data.

After looking at the logs and plots provided by Molly, Dr. Donna notices that Dave’s blood glucose before dinner is often higher than his target. Based on that she decides to lower his lunchtime correction factor to 85 so that he gets more insulin with lunch. Molly logs into Insul-Ease, goes to the Regimen tab and types the new number for the “BG Correction Day” factor, and clicks the update button. Having already scheduled his next checkup, she updates the date of his next appointment too, and clicks that update button.
