The Diabetes Wellness Program supports people 18 years and older living with Type 1 or 2 diabetes.

Our team of Certified Diabetes Educators consist of a Registered Nurse and Registered Dietitians.

We provide individual learning sessions to patients, families and caregivers aimed at providing education, ongoing support and crisis management. We tailor our education to each individual’s unique needs and situation.

Appointments are provided at all 5 of our sites.

Education topics can include:

• Healthy eating/balanced nutrition
• Carbohydrate counting
• Insulin teaching
• Oral medication management
• Blood sugar monitoring
• Sick day management
• Foot care

We accept referrals from health care providers and self referrals.

Diabetes management takes a team.  We work with other members of the healthcare team, such as doctors, nurse practitioners, pharmacists, social workers, and community workers, to help you achieve your goals.
