Diabetes class 1

Please refer your patients who have pre-diabetes or diabetes to our Diabetes Class 1. Our class will help your patients take control of their health. Whether they’ve just been diagnosed or have had diabetes for years, this class can help them.

Even patients without diabetes can come to the class.

In class they’ll learn:

  • How diabetes affects their health
  • How to measure their blood sugar
  • What foods to eat

If they’ve already taken Diabetes Class 1, your patients can take Diabetes Class 2.

In this class, we give out:

  • A glucometer (blood sugar monitor)
  • A portion control plate
  • A physical activity and exercise book
  • A blood sugar log

If your patients already have a blood sugar monitor, they should bring it to the class. They can get a new monitor from the Culinary Health Fund once each year.

This class is offered:

  • In English or Spanish
  • In the morning, afternoon, or at night
  • At no cost for your patients or their dependents. This means they don’t have to pay.

Your patients can call 702-691-5665 to sign up for a class.

“I believe this class to be extremely helpful to pre-diabetics and diabetics. It is catered to people who necessarily do not have medical knowledge. It is taught in an understandable way for everyone. It is a really thorough, really good class. All diabetics should attend. The instructor is really knowledgeable.” —Carolyne Ramirez
