About This Cause
The Great Effort Diabetic Initiative was created to assist with the epidemic of diabetes in our region. Statistically one in four loved ones have been affected with this crippling disease. Patients seem to be getting younger and younger. The age group of 45 to 65 years of age is the focus of our effort due to lack of insurance or money to assist with the cost of diabetic care before it is too late. Dialysis, amputation and kidney disease are all preventable if a Great Effort is implemented. The Great Effort Diabetic Initiative is created to educate patients on diabetic complications in the home setting to include management of medications, and assist with food choices related to the diabetic process, AT THE GRASS ROOTS LEVEL. The Great Effort Diabetic Initiative includes Register Nurses, Social Workers, Dieticians, and Physicians. A Register Nurse will recommend a plan of care a Physician to insure patient diabetic compliance and glucose control ei, A1c. A Social Worker will assist patients with any programs available to meet social economic need. A Dietician will train / teach and instruct patients with proper American Diabetes Association compliance diet at home to ensure patients outcome, for example daily glucose monitoring, meal preparation, and telehealth monitoring to provide daily readings and compliance. This program is open to the general public to those whom are serious about compliance. Services are made aware via public seminars, health care screenings and events, word of mouth, newspapers, AD's and public radio announcements.
