One in six adults are at risk โ Could it be you?
Diabetes is one of Australiaโs and our stateโs most serious and costly chronic health conditions.
1.4 million people in Australia are living with diabetes, and it is estimated there are another 500,000 people who have undiagnosed diabetes.
The time to act is now.
Diabetes SA has partnered with Country SA PHN
and Lions MD 201 C1, to present a series of 10 regional events for type 2 community awareness and screening.
The next event will be in Port Augusta at the Central Oval Sports Centre, on Thursday 8th April, 9.30 am – 4.00 pm.
The purpose of the event is to raise awareness of the signs and symptoms, as well as the risk factors, for type 2 diabetes. The events provide everyone with an opportunity to be screened free of charge and receive information and tips on how to lower their risk for type 2 diabetes.
Please take the test online at www.facethefacts.org.au, make a booking if you score over 12, and come along on the day and speak to the Diabetes SA Health Professional team.
Diabetes. Itโs not worth the risk.
