Diabetes

Diabetes is a complex disorder. When you have diabetes you are not able to properly use the food you eat for energy. Meal planning, exercise and medication need to be balanced to achieve good health.

This challenge can be accomplished by learning self-management skills with Diabetes Education.


Diabetes Education

The American Diabetes Association recognizes our outpatient educational service as meeting the National Standards for Diabetes Self-Management Education. Diabetes Education staff will provide you with the tools you will need to self-manage your diabetes. A physician's referral is needed to register in the program.

Diabetes Education utilizes a multi-disciplinary team which includes RN's and dietitians experienced in diabetes management. We will assess your current needs and goals. Our staff will help you develop an individualized treatment plan that will help you succeed in self-management of your diabetes.
