Diabetes Programs

Education is important to manage diabetes. At MHCS, we offer the following diabetes programs:

  • Diabetes Education is for patients with diabetes. The American Diabetes Association recommends patients with diabetes get education at four critical times:
  1. When they are first diagnosed.
  2. Each year after initially diagnosed.
  3. When you have had a change in your health physically or mentally.
  4. When you have had a change in your living situation or cognition.

  • Diabetic Support Group is for anyone interested in learning more about managing  diabetes. This class is for diabetics, their family members or medical advocates.  It is free and meets quarterly in meeting room A located on the third floor of Memorial Hospital's outpatient services tower the third Tuesday in January, April, July and October beginning at 5:30 p.m. Meetings are approximately 60-90 minutes in length. A light meal is provided. RSVP is required one week prior to the meeting.
