Type 2 diabetes is a serious condition that can have life changing complications, but the good news is that with the right information, you can make choices that are best for you.
Your GP or Nurse can refer you to a group education session designed to put you in control of your diabetes. They are run by clinicians who are specialists in diabetes care.
Topics include:
• What is diabetes? The causes and symptoms
• What does it mean for your body
• How to eat, sleep and move to help your diabetes
• What the medication options are
• What to look out for in the future
We know that learning in a group is a supportive way to get to grips with your diagnosis
– lots of people share their experiences but you are also welcome to sit back and listen.
The aim is to be friendly open and non-judgemental.
There are lots of options to choose from including face to face and online. Contact Talbot Medical Centre and ask us to refer you.
