Patient Care
The Joslin Patient-Care Difference
Joslin Diabetes Center at UCI is the only university-based,
comprehensive diabetes center in Orange County and the only center in
California affiliated with the world-renowned Joslin Diabetes Center in Boston. A leading medical institution to serve more than 1 million
patients with diabetes in Southern California, Joslin Diabetes Center
at UCI is fully equipped to provide world-class diabetes care and cutting-edge
research. As a major diabetes resource for community physicians, nurses,
educators, patients and their families, the Center augments the clinical,
educational, and research missions of UCI Medical Center.
Helping Patients Manage Diabetes
Our goal is to help patients develop the skills to manage their diabetes.
Joslin team members work with patients, families and primary care physicians
to coordinate and provide diabetes care to meet the needs of each individual.
Diabetes management programs are designed to help patients take charge of their
own health and well-being. Education programs — both individualized and
group — are focused on giving patients the tools they need to avoid complications
of diabetes. This includes teaching patients how to be self-vigilant about blood
glucose monitoring and to maintain better health throughout their lifetime.
