OhioHealth Grant Medical Center is making significant strides in diabetes management through its comprehensive diabetes program. This initiative aims to empower patients to take charge of their health by providing expert-led education, personalized care, and continuous support.
Rachel Sayre, a certified diabetes care and education specialist at the center, emphasizes the importance of proper communication when patients are diagnosed. She notes that many individuals receive their diabetes diagnosis over the phone, which can be overwhelming. To address this, the program offers a supportive environment where patients can learn about their condition and develop effective management strategies.
The diabetes program at OhioHealth Grant Medical Center focuses on individualized care plans tailored to each patient's unique needs. Through workshops and one-on-one consultations, patients gain valuable insights into managing their diabetes, including dietary choices, exercise regimens, and medication management. This holistic approach not only enhances patients' understanding of their condition but also fosters a sense of community and support among participants.
