Diabetes educational series
Our Diabetes Conversation Map Series is made up of four classes:
- Class 1: On the Road to Diabetes Management
- Class 2: Diabetes and Nutrition
- Class 3: Monitoring Your Blood Sugar
- Class 4: Continuing Your Journey — Medications and Complications
Attendees must complete all four classes to receive a certificate of completion. Although there is no charge for attending, attendees will need to register so that materials are available for them.
Typically, these classes take place on Fridays at our hospital. However, we are currently providing pre-taped classes through our hospital's event calendar.
