More than 216,000 Kentuckians have diabetes, but only half are aware of their condition.
Awareness is the first step towards ensuring an active, healthy lifestyle.
Controlling your diabetes may seem overwhelming at first, but help is available. In additional to our other programs, the Healthy Lifestyle Center at the Jewish Community Center is home to the Jewish Hospital Diabetes Management Program. Our program is covered by most insurance plans and has been recognized by the American Diabetes Association for the past 10 years. The program includes individual consultations with a Registered Nurse and Dietician, and 14 hours of classroom instruction by a team which includes a clinical nurse specialist, registered dietician, endocrinologist and exercise physiologist. During the consultations and seminar, you and your family will have the opportunity to discuss your questions and concerns about diabetes.
