Carol
has more than 20
years
experience in nursing
with 15 years experience
in
diabetes education. In 2003, she earned the Certified Diabetes Educator
(CDE) credential. Carol enjoys helping people to improve their health and
incorporate healthy lifestyle choices into their diabetes self-management.
She has a strong interest in disease prevention and health promotion. Optimum
diabetes
management incorporates lifestyle changes that not only lower the risk of diabetes
complications, but also improve a person's blood pressure and cholesterol levels,
and lower the risk of developing other chronic diseases. Carol's
goal is to help prevent the long-term complications
from diabetes and to improve patients'
quality of
life. With degrees in both psychology and nursing, she combines knowledge
and skills from both psychology and medicine
to help people successfully manage their diabetes.
