The
Upper Ohio Valley Diabetes Coalition will be hosting a free workshop, “The
Diabetes Self-Management Program” for persons with diabetes and their
caregivers. The workshop begins Tuesday November 17th and continues
for 6 weeks. It will be held at the Mary H Weir Library located on Main Street
in Weirton from 10 to 11:45 am. During the program the participants will learn
and discuss their role in the care and management of diabetes, use self-help
tools to balance and manage their diabetes, and identify common problems among
people with diabetes. “By defining healthy eating and exercise, participants in
the end will take charge of life and feel better,” states Cindy Webster, RN,
instructor of the workshop. You may register at the Library or by calling the Hancock
County Health Department at 304-563-3343.
