EMPOWER courses are routinely led by Nurse Educators who will facilitate the session and answer any questions that you may have.
With your consent, we may also share your email address with Mapmydiabetes to create an account. Mapmydiabetes is a web-based service that provides you with information about diabetes, its complications and treatment, as well as some tools to help you set and achieve goals.
If you are unable to attend an EMPOWER face-to-face course you will be offered the option to access Mapmydiabetes, an online education programme. Mapmydiabetes is suitable for adults with type 2 diabetes who have an email address and access to an internet-enabled device (computer, laptop, tablet or smart phone).
Everyone who attends an EMPOWER course will be offered access to Mapmydiabetes, an online education programme. All you need is an email and access to an internet-enabled device. Once you are set up with an account you will be able to access your account as often as you like.
If you require any information about a course, please call on 0800 852 7460 or email empower.ntccg@nhs.net
