Diabetes Self-Management Education
At Access to Healthcare Network (AHN), we are passionate about creating healthier communities. This includes connecting individuals with the education, training, and support needed to manage their health effectively, efficiently and affordably.
Diabetes is among the most common, costly, and serious chronic diseases affecting our communities. In Nevada alone, more than 280,000 adults (12.4% of the adult population) live with diabetes and face its devastating consequences every day. When left untreated, diabetes can lead to other potential health complications, such as heart disease, stroke, kidney damage, and nerve damage.
Learning to manage your diabetes may seem overwhelming at times, but Access to Healthcare Network is here to help. Whether you are newly diagnosed or have been living with diabetes for many years, our Diabetes Self-Management Education (DSME) program can assist you in managing your diabetes, achieving your health goals, and improving your overall quality of life.
The Access Diabetes Self-Management Education program is a six-week workshop available for Nevada residents who are living with type 1, type 2, or gestational diabetes. Under the guidance of a Registered Dietitian and trained Health Educators, workshop participants learn the skills needed to manage blood sugar levels through diet, exercise, and healthy lifestyle modifications.
