Our Outpatient Diabetes Education Program offers an educational series and voluntary exercise program designed to give you the tools to take control of your life. Each program consists of eight hours of classroom education, followed by individual consultations to set up a personalized meal plan and exercise plan tailored for your specific needs and follow up to assist you in your self management goals. You will learn about diabetes, meal planning strategies, the role of exercise and medications, how to reduce your risk of complications, how to cope with a chronic condition, how to monitor your blood sugar at home, and where to find resources and supplies.
