To prospectively determine the burden of hypoglycemia (minutes spent below 70 mg/dl per day, measured by continuous glucose monitor (CGM)) among residents of long term care facilities (LTC) with a diagnosis of type 1 or type 2 diabetes including key clinical subgroups (living in skilled nursing facility (SNF) or nursing home (NH), on different hypoglycemic medications).
