Diabetes is largely a self-managed, lifelong disease and education is essential in equipping individuals with the best knowledge and tools to care for their diabetes. Working closely with your healthcare team and diabetes educator to manage your diabetes can lessen your risks of complications from diabetes. Remember, as your life changes, your plan may need to change, too. Anytime your plan isn’t working, it may be time for a change in plan. Although there is no cure for diabetes, the Diabetes Education Self-Management Program at Pomerene Hospital is committed to helping those with diabetes in our community to lead happy and healthy lives.
