Diabetes Awareness Month offerings announced at Apple

(Nov. 19, 2015) Core Clinical Care, a division of Apple Discount Drugs, announces exclusive offerings for Diabetes Awareness month throughout November. Diabetic patients can take advantage of classes, testing, special discounts on diabetes products and the promotion of the American Diabetes Association campaign, “Eat Well, America!”
“Being in the healthcare profession, we care about the health and well-being of the people in our community,” said John Motsko, one of Apple Discount Drugs certified diabetes educators. “With the rate of people living with diabetes on the Shore almost doubling the national rate, we know there is a need for specialized diabetes services and counseling. The one-on-one and group counseling sessions are offered all year long by appointment. We know this disease doesn’t go away so we want to empower people to learn how to manage diabetes and live a better quality of life.”
“Many times we see people walk through our doors with a blank look on their face,” said Geoff Twigg, board certified ambulatory care pharmacist and diabetes educator. “They aren’t sure what questions to even ask about diabetes and how to manage the disease. That’s why we are here to help. We want to provide them with the appropriate tools to help them make informed decisions about their plan of care.”
Apple is also accepting pre-registration for education classes for 2016. Register for a drawing for a free One Touch Verio blood glucose meter, consultation with a certified diabetes educator, blood glucose testing, blood glucose meter data analysis, free diabetes educational materials, blood glucose log books DVD on living well with diabetes, diabetes ID cards and special pricing on health mart glucose tablets, diabetics’ foot care cream, intensive moisturizing cream and fiber tablets.
