  • Small group classes.
  • Education on the disease process.
  • Meal planning with carbohydrate counting.
  • Home blood sugar monitoring.
  • Intensive insulin management for "tight control."
  • Care for diabetes in pregnancy and preconception.
  • Complications - acute and chronic.
  • Exercise and health concerns.
  • Coping with social and emotional aspects of diabetes.
  • A1C checks.
  • Smoking cessation.

To get started with our diabetes education program, you need a doctor's referral. For information, talk to your primary care doctor or call us at (541) 789-5906, option 1.
