About the program
The Diabetes Wellness program is delivered by our expert clinical and allied health staff who understand everyone’s diabetes journey is different and tailor the program to suit your needs.
When you sign up to our Diabetes Wellness program you will also complete our Foot Wellness program. The combined program provides specialist education about healthy feet and falls prevention linked with education about damage to nerves in the feet related to diabetes.
As a Diabetes Wellness program participant you will receive health assessments prior to starting the program and throughout the program. This enables clinicians to monitor your progress, make any adjustments to your customised program and help celebrate your achievements.
As a result of COVID-19, our Wellness programs have been moved to a virtual setting meaning you can access it from wherever you live. Delivered once a week via a Zoom video call, you’ll be able to speak openly about your concerns and even socialise with new friends, all from the comfort and safety of your own home. One of our Wellness Facilitators can even help you get set up if you’ve never used video calling before and all you need is internet connection.
As part of the programs, you will receive;
- An information book for you to refer back to
- Loan of an iPad (for the duration of the program) to help increase your access to support in managing diabetes
- An individualised health check and health plan.
