Judith Mitnick Earns Certified Diabetes Educator Credential!

Our dietitian at Healthy Way, Judith Mitnick has recently become a Certified Diabetes Educator (CDE)! This CDE credential is obtained through the American Association of Diabetes Educators.

Diabetes education, also known as diabetes self-management education (DSME) helps individuals living with or at risk for diabetes gain the knowledge and skills needed to modify behavior and successfully self-manage the disease and its related conditions. The intervention aims to help patients achieve better quality of life while reducing their dependence on costly healthcare by teaching patients about:

• Healthy eating
• Being active
• Monitoring
• Taking medication
• Problem solving
• Healthy coping
• Reducing risks
