Diabetes PATH

Diabetes PATH

Diabetes PATH (Personal Action Toward Health) is Michigan’s name for the Stanford Diabetes Self-Management Program (DSMP). Workshop participants learn about diabetes, how to manage blood sugars, what healthy eating means, how to read labels, and practice menu planning. The workshop also addresses effects of stress and positive ways to deal with it, how to choose appropriate exercise for fitness and safety, how to prevent or delta complications, proper skin and foot care, skills for communicating with health professionals, and much more! Participants set their own goals by developing weekly action plans.

The program was developed and rigorously tested by Stanford University. Studies show significant improvements in symptoms of hypoglycemia, healthy eating patterns and reading food labels, communicating with physicians, depression, patient activation and self-efficacy, as well as, fewer emergency room visits.
