A Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist (CDCES) is a licensed health care professional with advanced education to help you better understand diabetes, is part of your self-care team and works with you to set realistic, achievable goals. It is like having your own personal coach!
Your CDCES will spend about one hour with you on the first visit and roughly 30 minutes on follow-up visits.
During these visits, you will talk about what type of care and services will help the most. You will also learn about new technology that makes testing blood sugar easier.

- You are diagnosed with any type of diabetes.
