BRUNSWICK — Sweetser will be hosting a free Diabetes Workshop for members of the public for six weeks, starting on Feb. 4, from 9:30 a.m. to noon at 329 Bath Road, Brunswick. Participants will make weekly action plans, share experiences, and help each other solve problems they encounter in creating and carrying out their self-management program. The free workshops, based on the Stanford Diabetes Self-Management Program, will be facilitated by two trainers from Healthcentric Advisors. The emphasis of the workshops will be on proactive care and the importance of self-advocating, and will offer participants an opportunity to share their experiences with others.
The course is free, but registration is required. For more information, contact the Sweetser Training Institute at (207) 294-4414 or training@sweetser.org.
