Diabetes care at VA Central Iowa health care
Diabetes Education Program
The benefits of this specialized diabetes education are numerous, but are frequently underutilized.
Studies suggest diabetes education and/or counseling yields a lower A1C and that these patients increased their use of primary and preventive services and decreased the use of acute, inpatient hospital services as compared to controls who did not receive education or counseling.
Diabetes education helps. And classes are available for you.
CLASSES: All classes are held on the main campus in the PCC Education Room, 1633, unless noted otherwise.
Diabetes Basics - 1st & 3rd Thursdays each month, 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
- A comprehensive session for Veterans newly diagnosed with diabetes or those who have never attended a diabetes education class.
Diabetes Prevention - 2nd Thursday each month, 12:30 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.
- A class for Veterans with blood glucose levels in the pre-diabetes range of 100-125 mg/dl.
Diabetes Refresher - 4th Thursday each month, 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
- A course for Veterans who have had already attended a diabetes class and who have had diabetes for a number of years and need help managing their disease.
CBOC Diabetes Group Class - A series of 4 classes, held the first four Wednesdays of each month (Clinical Video Telehealth), 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
