Accreditation
Magic Valley Regional Medical Center's Diabetes
Education program first obtained American Diabetes Association (ADA)
Recognition in 1999. ADA Recognition was renewed in 2002 and the
program is currently certified through 2005. Our program was the first
program in the Magic Valley to achieve ADA Recognition.
Programs applying for recognition voluntarily
submit to a rigorous review process by experts in the field of
diabetes who evaluate each program on its ability to provide patients
with a comprehensive individualized education program.
Programs that
achieve recognition status have a staff of knowledgeable health
professionals who can provide participants with comprehensive training
in diabetes self-management.
American Diabetes Association is the
nation’s leading non-profit health organization supporting diabetes
research, advocacy and information for health professionals, patients
and the public.
