My wife and I have been battling hypertension and diabetes for years now. We used to get our medicines from a hospital that was far away. One day my sugar levels dropped, so my wife rushed me to a hospital. Nurses told me about a program they were offering to patients like us. Before I was discharged, we were enrolled into Empower Health. Now, whenever Icheck my glucose and BP, my doctor gets my readings. Sometimes we even get checks at home. The best part is the educational messages. Even though my wife can’t read, she is able to interpret the pictures. Ever since we joined the program our health has improved. We now take our prescribed medicine from the doctor and anytime we check our glucose and BP levels the results put a smile on our faces.
