Committee agrees to pursue diabetes education training with targeted outreach
Summary
Members invited a prior presenter to return and discussed hosting a diabetes education session—likely at the senior center—with targeted outreach through providers and pharmacies; midmorning and early-afternoon sessions were suggested as best for attendance.
Bob Dalton reopened the topic of diabetes education training and said the presenter who ran prior sessions has agreed to return to Sweet Home. He suggested hosting at the senior center and increasing campaign efforts to attract attendees.
Committee members recommended targeted outreach to provider groups and pharmacies, and a provider-led handout push: “If you have patients… this is what we’re doing. It’s a free event,” a committee member said to emphasize both the educational purpose and no-cost entry. Members discussed timing, suggesting midmorning or early afternoon to reach patients who may have daytime appointments.
