Why Take This Workshop?
New technology, such as glucose monitors, nutrition tracking apps, and telehealth services—offer unprecedented support for managing diabetes. But too many seniors aren’t aware of these tools and how they can fit into their lives. This workshop helps bridge that gap, showing them practical, accessible tech that empowers them to take control of their health and diabetes management.
- Nearly 1 in 4 adults over 65 has diabetes, and 50% are at risk for prediabetes, which often goes undiagnosed.
- Diabetes can lead to complications like vision loss, kidney issues, and nerve damage, significantly impacting seniors’ quality of life.
- Diabetes management and prevention can lower healthcare costs associated with complications, saving seniors and communities money in the long run.
This workshop focuses on practical steps to help attendees maintain independence and improve overall health.
