Monarch
Medical Technologies
, the leader in precision insulin dosing
technology for optimized glycemic management, today announced that
Caroline Isbey, RN, MSN, has joined the organization to serve as the
clinical education manager. Drawing from her more than 30 years of
nursing experience in diabetes management, Isbey will be responsible for
managing the educational resources to aid organizations in the adoption
of best practices for diabetes care and use of Monarch’s EndoTool®
Glucose Management System
.

Isbey joins Monarch from The Joint Commission, where she most recently
served as the associate director for the Accreditation and
Disease-Specific Care (DSC) Certification programs. In this role, she
assisted organizations with achieving accreditation and with oversight
of all certification activities related to disease management services,
including the development of standards and review processes.

“In the hospital, we must be sending our patients with diabetes the
right message on how they should care for their condition by managing
hyperglycemia and avoiding hypoglycemia,” said Isbey. “In order to do
this, organizations must have a comprehensive training program and
clinicians must demonstrate adequate comprehension. I look forward to
joining the Monarch team to help hospitals implement the education on
how to use EndoTool and ultimately send their patients the right message
in how to manage their diabetes.”

Previously, Isbey served as Director of Clinical Operations in the
Hospital Division at Healthways, Inc., a national disease management
provider. She began her career at Vanderbilt University Medical Center,
where she served as certified diabetes educator and clinical nurse
specialist. Isbey is a frequent speaker and published author and brings
a unique perspective to her role having lived with type 1 diabetes from
a young age.

“We are thrilled to have Caroline as the newest member of the Monarch
team,” said Laurel Fuqua, RN, MSN, Executive VP & Chief Clinical Officer
of Monarch Medical Technologies. “One of the most challenging components
in any quality improvement initiative is education. With diabetes
impacting every unit and nearly every department in the hospital, a
comprehensive education plan is required, and Caroline is well-equipped
to help our customers fully optimize EndoTool.”
