National Diabetes Month 2022

Aloha ‘Ohana!

November is National Diabetes Month, a time when communities across the country team up to bring attention to diabetes. This year’s focus is on managing diabetes by building your healthcare team.

Diabetes is a disease that occurs when your blood glucose, also called blood sugar, is too high. It affects about 37 million Americans, including adults and youth. Diabetes can damage the eyes, kidneys, nerves, and heart, and is linked to some types of cancer.

Working with healthcare professionals at Ko’olauloa Health Center can offer you the personal care you need and may help improve your health. And while it takes a team to manage diabetes, remember that you are the most important participant in your diabetes care.

Here are some tips to help you manage diabetes and build your healthcare team:

- You are the center of your care.
- Manage diabetes as early as possible.
- Build your diabetes healthcare team with Ko’olauloa Health Center.
- Start with small changes to create healthy habits.
- Make physical activity and healthy eating part of your daily routine.
