The RN Diabetic Health and Wellness Educator provides comprehensive education and support to patients managing diabetes and related conditions in both inpatient and outpatient settings. This role offers individualized and group instruction on essential self-management skills, including glucose monitoring, medication management, nutrition, and lifestyle modifications.

Experience with insulin pump management and an understanding of adult learning principles will further support success in this role.
