Removing the Barriers to Diabetes Education

Teaching You and Your Family How to Manage Diabetes is Our Priority
A new diagnosis of diabetes can feel overwhelming-there is so much to learn, and you need to learn it quickly! Perhaps you are not new to diabetes, but want a refresher (so much has changed in the last 10 years, it can be hard to keep up!).
​
You can be taught self-management and skills to manage diabetes on a daily basis. Downloadable workshops are the perfect place to learn skills and self-management.​ If you prefer to learn on one-one-one or on your own, we can do that too!
​
Perhaps you need someone to listen, give encouragement and help you get back on track. That is where we step in to support you with diabetes coaching, specializing in Type 2.

I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional care provided by our private nurse during my mom’s illness. From the moment she stepped in, her professionalism and compassion were evident. She was meticulous in her approach, ensuring every aspect of my mom’s care was handled with precision and care. Her communication with me was outstanding—she kept me informed every step of the way, even offering valuable recommendations for nutrition and additional support. Living across the country, her presence gave me immense peace of mind, knowing my mom was in capable hands. This allowed me to focus on other critical aspects of my mom’s care that only I could manage. Her dedication and kindness truly went above and beyond, making an incredibly difficult time more manageable. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in need of compassionate and skilled home care.

I am especially grateful to have recently met with Michelle Perry, My Diabetes Nurse. After a few years of trying to manage my anxiety/depression with Type 1 diabetes, especially fearful of low blood sugar, a resource search connected us. After a short time, she has eased my fears. I cannot say enough about Michelle’s diabetes knowledge, professionalism and caring nature. I highly recommend Michelle Perry.
Louise
Michelle has been an angel! She helped when I first came out of the hospital-setting up my house to be wheelchair friendly, driving me to appointments and setting up my weekly medication box. As time went on, I came to depend on her to attend my doctor appointments, communicate with my doctors and set up healthcare portal accounts. She has been instrumental in keeping me out of the hospital this last year. I wouldn't be alive today if it wasn't for her.

I have known Michelle for many years and have relied on her knowledge and skillfull communication about diabetes medication management to inform students about this vital area of clinical medicine in our Doctor of Physical Therapy curriculum. Our community is lucky to have access to this invaluable resource.
