In 1999 Covenant Medical Center provided care to over 500 children who used this program. Although the SICK BAY location has changed, children will still receive the same competent, tender loving care they need when they're not feeling the greatest. Parents can pre-register their children, infant through adolescent, with no cost or obligation. The program consists of weekly sessions that address such topics as treatments, blood glucose, diet, exercise, and medication. Instructors include registered nurses, diabetes educators, and Covenant's diabetes specialist, Dr. Richard Warhol.
Most insurance companies cover the cost of the program.
Pre-registration is required.
