The Live Well Diabetes Self-Management Workshop

Griffin Health regularly offers the Live Well Diabetes Self-Management Workshop, a free, six-week workshop in its community to help empower individuals diagnosed with diabetes take control of their health.

This interactive workshop will focus on several topics for those with diabetes, including healthy eating, foot care, low and high blood sugar, sick day guidelines, tips for dealing with stress, and how to set small and achievable goals.

The Live Well Diabetes Self-Management Workshop is an evidence-based self-management program developed at Stanford University. The workshop is also open to caregivers.

Books and other materials for the workshop will be provided at no cost. The program is sponsored by the Western Connecticut Area Agency on Aging and the Griffin Hospital Community Outreach and Valley Parish Nursing.
