Monmouth Medical Center, Southern Campus partnered with Quality Insights to host a free diabetes workshop series for the community in December of 2018.

Six graduates were able to share their personal experience living with diabetes and learned how to eat better, exercise, deal with stress, and manage diabetes.

As a result, the two organizations have joined forces again to offer another free diabetes workshop series.

If you are a person with Medicare who has diabetes, this workshop is for you.

The free diabetes self-management workshop series will be offered at Monmouth Medical Center, Southern Campus (3rd floor conference room) on 600 River Ave in Lakewood. Workshops are on Wednesdays, March 6, 13, 20, 27, April 3, and 10, from 10:00 am to 11:30 am.

Complimentary healthy snacks, literature, and resources will be provided. The workshop is open to the public and all attendees must register by the second session.

To register, call RWJBarnabas Health (RWHBH) at 1-888-724-7123.

Quality Insights offers free diabetes self-management education as part of Everyone with Diabetes Counts (EDC). The EDC program is a national initiative of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).
