Comprehensive Diabetes Education
UPMC Diabetes Centers are a network of locations – in select UPMC hospitals, endocrinology sites and primary care practices – that provide comprehensive education to those living with diabetes.
Helping You Manage Diabetes
Having diabetes does not mean that you cannot live a normal life. For most people living with diabetes, their quality of life depends on how much they know about diabetes and how well they use this knowledge to successfully manage the disease. That's why UPMC Diabetes Centers offer Diabetes Self-Management Education (DSME).
This comprehensive education program for people with diabetes has been specially recognized by the American Diabetes Association for quality self-management education.
Connecting You to Your Health Care Team
Not only do UPMC Diabetes Centers provide critical diabetes education, they also connect you to a team of experts – from diabetes educators and dietitians to your primary care doctor and endocrinologist – who all work together to help you manage your diabetes.
