Diabetes Prevention

For many adults, learning they have Type 2 diabetes is life changing. Not only is it a lifelong condition, but it changes their relationship with food and exercise. At Mercy, our Diabetes Education Program helps patients with both diabetes prevention and management.  For people who are at risk for type 2 diabetes, lifestyle changes like improving nutrition, increasing activity, and managing stress can make a tremendous difference.

"When someone leaves our program feeling empowered, knowing that they can manage their diabetes or even prevent it, that's when we know we're making a real difference."

And for those who were already diagnosed with diabetes, our goal is to give them the tools, support, and encouragement they need to take control of their health. If you’re ready to learn more about how to manage and prevent diabetes, watch the video above and meet our team who will become your best point of support.

"Because preventative care isn't just about avoiding illness. It's about giving people the knowledge and support to live healthier, fuller lives."
