Type 2 diabetes is an impairment in the way the body regulates and uses sugar (glucose) as a fuel, resulting in too much sugar circulating in the bloodstream. Eventually, high blood sugar levels can lead to disorders of the circulatory, nervous and immune systems.

Gandangara Health Services Diabetes Yarning Circle is aimed to be a culturally safe way for patients to learn more about how to better manage diabetes, to share stories about their experiences managing diabetes, and to improve the facilitation of various health support services available at GHS and greater health networks.  Diabetes management is vital for patients to avoid long term complications and education is a key element of successful management.
