Diabetes Management Program

The Ochsner Diabetes Management Program in Marrero, LA, provides essential support for individuals aged 18 and older living with type 1, type 2, or gestational diabetes. Accredited by the American Diabetes Association, our dedicated team of certified diabetes educators, including registered nurses and registered dietitians, focuses on empowering participants through comprehensive learning. Our interactive Basic Diabetes Group Classes, offered monthly, condense crucial information into a single five-hour session that includes lunch and engaging activities. Attendees will gain valuable insights into diabetes management, blood sugar monitoring, prevention of complications, medication management, healthy eating strategies, and exercise. We encourage those interested in enhancing their diabetes care to consult their physician for a referral to our program.
