Past: Diabetes Self-Management Support Group

Southeast Diabetes Center hosts this free support group facilitated by Southeast’s Diabetes Educators. The programs are geared toward people who are living with diabetes and trying to control blood glucose. Friends and family members are also welcome. The meeting will be from 1 to 2 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 9, at HealthPoint Plaza in Cape. This month’s topic is “Stability verses balance.” Participants will learn the difference between Alzheimer’s and dementia along with the impact, stages and risk factors of Alzheimer’s. A staff member from the Alzheimer’s Association will be the guest speaker and will discuss current research and treatment available to address symptoms of these two conditions. To register, call the Southeast Diabetes Center at (573) 339-0121 to take advantage of this program.
