tients control diabetes and
live longer and healthier lives.
The new program, which be-
gan September 27, 2009, will
enable the hospital’s team
of doctors, nurses, dieticians
and staff to take a multidis-
ciplinary approach through
treatment, education and life-
style management.
“This new program will
help patients with diabetes
to keep their condition under
control and maintain a healthy,
active lifestyle,” said Jeff
Welch, COO. “Those who
participate should experience
reduced complications nor-
mally associated with their
eyes, kidneys, heart and feet.”
Additional patient benefits
include learning to perform
proper foot exams at home,
maintaining healthy levels of
blood glucose, learning to con-
trol blood glucose while sick
or driving, as well as stress
reduction techniques.
This educational program
is covered by Medicare and
most insurance companies.
Participants will learn about
exercise, insulin, complica-
tions, medications, blood glu-
cose monitoring, heart healthy
eating and other related topics.
Free monthly support groups
and online education are also
available at www.delraymedi-
