Pediatric Diabetes & Endocronology

The Covenant HealthCare Diabetes Self-Management program is the only program north of Lansing that provides a full range of education and services for children through age 18. Our program offers individual counseling, classes and a variety of support groups, including a Pediatric Diabetes Support Group. Additionally, several entertaining outings are planned throughout the year for children, in addition to their educational and support group discussions.

Covenant also features a Pediatric Endocrinology (Diabetes) Clinic which is serviced by a board certified pediatric endocrinologist. This program allows families to obtain the finest diabetes medical care close to home. In addition, a pediatric support group is available for children who have diabetes.

The Diabetes Self-Management team consists Nurse Educators (who are registered nurses), Nutrition Educators, and Registered Dietitians (RD) who are all Certified Diabetes Educators (CDE). They collaborate with your child’s physician and assist you in making necessary lifestyle changes to help you and your child learn to live with diabetes.
