Grupo de Apoyo: Diabetes
Diabetes class
Nuestros grupos son una oportunidad de aprender de profesionales de salud sobre cómo vivir con diabetes y mejorar su salud. Tenemos nutriólogos, terapistas físicas, personal dental, enfermeros, trabajadores comunitarios de salud, y doctores que vienen para enseñar sobre la diabetes. Mucho del grupo es basado en la discusión, en que pacientes puedan compartir sus experiencias viviendo con diabetes. Durante cada grupo, cada paciente tiene la oportunidad de reunirse individualmente con un proveedor que puede ajustar la dosis de sus medicamentos, surtir medicamentos, y hacer cualquier prueba del laboratorio que el paciente necesite. Las clases se ofrecen en inglés y español y duran 2 horas en las tardes. La próxima clase en inglés es martes 15 noviembre de las 5:30-7:30. Todas las clases están en nuestra clínica de Rockwood. Amigos y miembros de la familia son bienvenidos.
Diabetes Support Group
Our diabetes support groups are an opportunity to learn from healthcare professionals about living with diabetes and improving your health. We have nutritionists, physical therapists, dental staff, nurses, community health workers, and doctors come to teach about diabetes. Much of the group is discussion-based, where patients can also share their experiences.
During every group, each person has the opportunity to meet individually with a provider, who can adjust medication doses, refill medications, and do any lab work that the patient is needing. Additionally, classes are offered in English and Spanish and are 2 hours long in the evenings. Next Spanish diabetes class is Weds Oct 12th from 5:30-7:30pm. Also, friends and family members are welcome.
