An Interactive Approach to Diabetes Management

Grand View Health Diabetes Self-Management Training is a series of interactive classes led by our registered dietitians and certified diabetes educators, providing comprehensive information about diabetes management. Recognized by the American Diabetes Association (ADA), this program is designed for anyone with diabetes or pre-diabetes, whether you are newly diagnosed or have had the condition long-term.

We will review topics such as meal planning, medications, how to prevent complications, exercise and lifestyle adjustments. You will participate in a one-on-one introductory session, as well as four two-hour small group sessions featuring ADA’s Conversation Map Program.
