I am a diabetes educator and would love to help you. Did you know that 50 % of people do not receive diabetes education upon diagnosis?

After having spent 20 years working at Mayo Clinic Hospital, I started my own diabetes education business. On a campus with 4,000+ nurses, there were less than 5 diabetes educators. You can see, there is not enough educators to teach ALL the things that people with diabetes need to know.

There are many kinds of insulins out there. Have questions?
Reach out to a diabetes educator to discuss YOUR specific insulin.

They are NOT all the same/interchangeable (and it can get confusing...). Ask an expert, not the internet

Tonight, I had the privilege of presenting to a group of nurses in Nanchang, China, for the second time. I thoroughly enjoyed preparing and delivering a presentation on the American Diabetes Association's 2026 Standards of Care, focusing on the role of nurses in managing hypoglycemia. (Taking pictures during a presentation can be challenging.)

Diabetes education provided by a diabetes educator, a nurse who is a specialist in diabetes. Group workshops, focused workshops, individual appointments and provider support services available in Jacksonville, Florida. No insurance needed at My Diabetes Nurse

If you are without health insurance, be sure to go to Healthcare.gov to search the Marketplace for insurance. The deadline for enrolling is Dec 15th for insurance coverage to start 1/1/26.

This was my third year enrolling a family member, and it is very user friendly. Easy to understand language. You can add in your preferred doctors names, prescriptions and as you look at plans, it will tell you whether the plan you are considering covers those items. We started using this "Obamacare" The Markplace insurance on 1/1/24, and my family member was hospitalized on 2/10/24. ER, ICU and several days in the hospital. Thankful that this insurance was in place.

If you need help with the Marketplace, reach out. I am not an insurance agent, just familiar with the process. mydiabetesnurse.com
