Living Well with Diabetes provides the education, tools, and on-going support needed for patients living with Type 2 Diabetes. Our team works together with Diabetes patients to help them manage their disease and maintain healthy living.
In one education session, patients will develop an understanding of the effects of Diabetes and the relationship between nutrition, exercise, medication, and stress.
Once the class is completed, patients meet with the Nurse Diabetes Educator and Dietitian for further support and individualized care to reach their goals and reduce the risk of long-term complications.
This class is currently being offered through a self-guided workshop. Click here for the workshop.
