Diabetes Support Group
| |
|
| | A diagnosis of diabetes can be overwhelming. It affects many aspects of a person’s life. Support from family, friends and other people living with diabetes helps those with diabetes manage their disease from day to day. VA Butler Healthcare offers a weekly Diabetes Support Group to help support Veterans in their diabetes management.
The support group is open to all Veterans with diabetes and their significant other. Please call in advance, 724-285-2250, as on a rare occasion, the class may be canceled. |

Fitness Class
| |
|
| | Fitness classes are provided free of charge to Veterans, but Veterans must pre-register before attending classes. To pre-register, contact VA Butler's HPDP Program Manager at 800.362.8262, ext. 2292.
Even if you are out of shape or have not been active in a long time, you can participate in a fitness class safely. For important health benefits, everyone should aim for at least 2 1/2 hours each week of moderate-intensity, or 1 1/4 hours a week of vigorous-intensity aerobic activity, or a combination of both.
Ready to get fit? Put on your exercise clothes, bring a towel and bottle of water and join us in the VA Butler Healthcare Auditorium! For more information, please contact VA Butler’s HPDP Program Manager at 724.285.2292.
