'LIVING WELL WITH TYPE 2 DIABETES' Courses

Living well with diabetes occurs when people develop knowledge, confidence and a range of skills that allow them to take greater control over the treatment of their disease.  This course provides education that promotes maintenance of good health, while respecting an individual's needs and choices.

FIVE SESSIONS COVER:

  • What is diabetes?
  • Healthy Eating: skills for making good food choices
  • Active living choices and weight management
  • Supermarket Shopping
  • Short and possible long-term complications
  • Living well with diabetes

The Auckland District Health Board (ADHB) in association with its Primary Health Organisations (PHOs) is funding Diabetes Self-management Education programmes for all people in their area newly-diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes.  Diabetes Auckland delivers the approved "Living Well with Diabetes" five-part course under contract.  

A programme is also available for Procare Network North patients. 

Ask your Doctor or Practice Nurse to refer you to the next Living Well with Diabetes Course.

Cost (will only apply in a few situations):  $37.50 for members         $50.00 for non-members    
To find out if you are eligible for a FREE place contact Diabetes Auckland on 623-2508.
If financial hardship prevents you from attending and you do not qualify for an ADHB ProCare free place, Diabetes Auckland may still be able to help.
