In developing your essay - Read widely. Have a clear understanding of what the topic is asking you to write about and ensure you include discussion of each of the elements identified in the topic statement. Use credible, current and relevant evidence from a range of evidence sources (that is, peer reviewed academic journals, appropriate and recent textbooks, online reports, research evidence and discussion papers from reputable and scholarly websites; primary sources) to support the development of your ideas, argument and discussion. Add depth and meaning to your discussion by referring to examples which demonstrate the role and function of the nurse in working with community groups to address community health issues. Your examples may focus on local, national or international contexts. Write for your target audience – in this case the marker of your work, who is a registered nurse with experience in planning and carrying out health promotion activities in a collaborative way.

Introduction
The healthcare system of the nation is one of the crucial factors for the residents living in the country. The development of the nation is also justified by the amount of healthcare service the country provides to its citizens. It is the healthcare system, which ensures the mortality rate in the country. The mortality rate of the county is high when the healthcare services are at its worst condition. On the other aspect of the picture, if the healthcare service of the nation is good, the rate of mortality decreases in a much efficient manner.
This essay will shed light on the various aspects of the nurses who treat the patients of diabetes. Mostly the patients belonging to the backward class, here the To
es Strait Islanders of Australia are focused om and various problems faced by them are reviewed as well as analysed The report is well equipped with the background of the patients suffering from diabetes. The applicable code of conduct that the nurses follow while dealing with such patients is also explored. The NMBA standard that is followed during the treatment of diabetes patients along with the formation of partnership of the nurse to provide better acre is vividly described.
Background of Patient with Diabetes Mellitus
When the glucoses level in the blood is increased at a much higher amount the disease called diabetes is caused. Glucose level in blood is the reason behind the energy for the better function of the body however the excessive amount of blood glucose is the primary reason for the cause of the disease (Hughes, Ayer & Katsimilis, 2019). The disease is subdivided into several parts such as diabetes type 1, diabetes type 2 and gestational diabetes. In the border spectrum, it can be said that diabetes is the storehouse of several other diseases of the body. The symptoms of diabetes in most of the patients are blu
ed vision, weight gain or lose, severe weakness and prone to infection.
There are two possible ways of having diabetes, one is due to the medical history and other is the family history of the patients. The possibility of family borne diabetes is the most common reason why people suffer from this disease. The risks if the patients having diabetes is much greater as the diabetic patients is more prone to the collapsing of heart, the failure of the internal organs, losing eyesight forever, urinary retention and many more (Kwan et al., 2020)
NMBA Code of Ethics for Nurses while Working with Patients Diagnosed with Diabetes Mellitus amongst To
es Strait Islanders
The patients with diabetes are meant to remain diabetic for the rest of their lives. It is one of the examples of chronic disease, which is not cured but can be controlled. The great amount of understanding is required between the nurses and diabetic patients while getting treatment. The level of understanding that the nurse needs to have during treatment of such patients is rooted from the pain of the patients whose internal organs are on the verge of collapsing due to the disease (Lyons & Bliss, 2018). The Nursing and Midwifery Board of Australia (NMBA) Codes of Ethics is the set of rules and regulation that is needed to be followed by every nurse. It is the guidelines, which ensures that the nurses are treating their patients in the most ethical way possible.
The decision, which the nurses take while treating the patient, is also based on the respective guidelines framed as the code of ethics. The framework of code of ethics comprises several factor, which includes the theories of nursing treatment, virtues of the treatment, obligation related to the treatment, the ethical practices that re need to be followed. The primary ethics that the nurse follows while treating the patients suffering from diabetes are extensively discussed.
The first code of ethics for nurses suggests the concept of compassion, personal attribution towards the wellbeing of the patients and finally treating them without any prejudice (Latimer, Barton, Ford, Gilbert & Sein, 2018). The patients’ suffering from diabetes suffers from major internal failure; the problem in urine retention of the patients is of the major problem that the nurses face during their treatment. The vulnerability of the patients is due to the collapses of the physical functioning, which arise such problems.
The context of the ethical values the nurse is required to understand such problems related to the patients and handle it with a sense of...
