Canyonlands Receives Grant for Diabetes Self-Management Education

Canyonlands Receives Grant for Diabetes Self-Management

Canyonlands Healthcare

Canyonlands Healthcare is going to provide free Diabetes Self-Management Education starting in May, 2018. Patients of Canyonlands Healthcare will be scheduled for a 1-hour session with a Canyonlands Pharmacist to discuss and support ways patients can manage the disease themselves after they leave the Doctor. This will include such things as healthy eating, being active, monitoring, taking medication, problem solving, healthy coping, and reducing risks.

The program was made possible with a grant awarded to Canyonlands Healthcare to provide educational support to patients diagnosed with diabetes. Andy Lewandowski, Director of Pharmacy at Lake Powell Medical Center will be leading the program.
