Health Programs»Diabetes Self Management Education

 

 

Medical Network One’s comprehensive Diabetes Education Program is accredited by the American Association of Diabetes Educators and the American Diabetes Association. With more than 15 million diabetics in the U. S. now, and an additional 2200 being diagnosed each day, diabetes is a major and immediate threat to the health of the country and the productivity of its workforce. Medical Network One believes education is the key to controlling and avoiding this disease, especially in the case of Type II diabetes, with risks that increase with age and obesity.

Further, published studies reveal that participants of diabetes education classes run a four-time lower risk of developing complications of diabetes, which include heart attacks, blindness, kidney failure and amputations.  Diabetes education is a lifelong process.  Diabetes care is continually evolving and diabetics need ongoing education to stay current on new tools and techniques for staying healthy and productive. Even those who have had diabetes education in the past are encouraged to refresh their knowledge. Further, because diabetes affects the entire family and beyond, Medical Network One encourages participants to attend classes with a friend or family member so they can assist in a healthy living plan.
