Scientific research has proven that controlling blood sugar levels can reduce the risk of long-term complication, and help you live a healthier life.

Our caring, experienced Certified Diabetes Educators will help you learn how to self-manage your diabetes following the Standard of Care guidelines provided by the American Diabetes Association. Working with your doctor, our team will assess your needs and provide a care plan which may include all or some of the below:

Diabetes Self-Management Training

  • Blood sugar monitoring (glucose meter will be provided)
  • Oral & Insulin management skills
  • Nutrition education & meal planning
  • Cholesterol & high blood pressure management
  • Exercise & weight loss counseling
  • Stress management
  • Preventing or delaying long-term complications

Sweet Success Program

Diabetes counseling during pregnancy for women with existing diabetes or newly diagnosed with Gestational diabetes. The individual receives education on nutrition, exercise and glucose monitoring.

Pre-diabetes Class

Here, we focus on preventing the diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes through healthy eating, weight loss and exercise. In addition, cholesterol management is discussed. Recent research has shown that as little as a 5—7% weight loss and 150 minutes/week of exercise can return blood sugars to normal ranges!

Included in all of the above are follow-up sessions and a monthly support group to provide ongoing support for the daily management of your diabetes.
