Educating people on coping with their diabetic condition helps not only in reducing their sugar levels and also blood pressure and cholesterol levels, reveals a study.

Lovelyamma Varghese, Director of Nursing Practice and quality for the Ambulatory Care Network at New York-Presbyterian Hospital, said that diabetes education was not only helpful, but it was necessary for people with the condition as it was designed to empower patients to self-manage and reach their goals.
He insisted that they have shown this program could really work with their patient-centered approach, which prioritized their patients' need and as diabetes educators.
Varghese added that they could go into their homes, speak their language, identify opportunities for behavioral changes, even open the fridge and see what was in there, as a part of the partnership.
