ABOUT ROCKY MOUNTAIN DIABETES CENTER

Rocky Mountain Diabetes Center provides comprehensive, individualized, leading-edge care to people of all ages and with all types of diabetes.

Other opportunities may include school and workplace training, community education, clinical research support, mentoring students, and developing patient education materials.

Because we maintain an ADA-recognized diabetes education program, the position also includes patient goal setting, follow-up, outcome tracking, and documentation in the electronic medical record.

Successful team members are excellent listeners, effective educators, collaborative professionals, and enthusiastic learners who enjoy helping patients use both technology and practical strategies to improve their lives.
