RiverView Health is excited to announce the restart of its monthly Type 2 Diabetes Support Group meetings! This group will meet the third Wednesday of every month (unless otherwise noted) from 5 to 6 pm in Conference Room 3 in the new clinic/hospital building at 323 S. Minnesota Street. Please use the main entrance on the east side of the new building and look for directional signage to Conference Room 3. COVID-19 social distancing requirements will be observed and a mask must be worn once inside the building.
“Managing diabetes takes a lot of work,’’ shared Laura Slaathaug, clinical dietitian at RiverView. “A diabetes support group can help a person to learn to change diet, exercise, and lifestyle habits without having to do it alone.’’
Slaathaug will lead the monthly meetings and invite special speakers to share information and tips.
The meetings are free and open to anyone with Type 2 diabetes and their family members. New members are always welcome. The following dates have been set for the remainder of 2021:
- Wednesday, Sept. 15
- Wednesday, Oct. 20
- Wednesday, Nov. 17
- Wednesday, Dec. 15
Due to the uptick in COVID-19, this event will be through Zoom. The link to join via computer: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/
