Group Class Education

Group class education is geared towards patients newly diagnosed with diabetes.  This 4 hour class is offered one Saturday each month.  The diabetes educator and Nurse Manager co-instruct this class using an ADA (American Diabetes Association) approved curriculum which includes the 10 required content areas.  Class size ranges from 2-10 people and encourages open discussion and participation by all attendees.  Activities, visuals and real-life situations help the group learn from one another and think critically to solve problems related to their diabetes.  Patients are also encouraged to set up a 1:1 appointment with the diabetes educator to design a specific meal plan. 

Patients are given numerous handouts, booklets and instructions to manage their diabetes, as well as contact information for the diabetes educator when they receive education. 

To attend one of the group class education sessions, please contact Lindsey Coffman R.D., L.D. at (816) 842-4440 ext. 167 or e-mail her at lcoffman@clayplattefamily.com.
