The Living with Diabetes self-management program consists of three parts:

  • You will learn about self-management, the skills needed to control blood sugars and information on diet, monitoring, meal planning and exercise. 
  • You will meet with the nurse and dietitian to monitor your progress, to continue your self-management training and answer your questions.
  • You will learn how to address common issues such as the highs and lows of blood sugars, management on the days that you are not feeling well, stress management, carbohydrate counting, eating out and chronic complications.

A physician referral and pre-assessment are required for eligibility for this class. We will create a customized program tailored to meet your needs. To learn more, please call 704-384-7390.

Management of Diabetes and Pregnancy

We offer individual consultations on diabetes and pregnancy for women who develop gestational diabetes. This includes monitoring glucose and planning meals. A certified diabetes educator will work with your physician throughout your pregnancy.

With an endocrinologist referral, we also help evaluate which pump is right for you and show you the proper way to use it.
