sutter says the number of hours of diabetic education at st. luke's is the same as before, but that's not true. as dr. diedel said, in the past, there were 3.6 f.t.e.s and now there are 1.4. you heard several months ago from cpmc that they were hiring more educators at st. luke's and now the number is down again. this is deceitful, disappointing and unprofessional and it hurts the care of patients at the st. luke's center. at valencia, there's an r.n. educator three days a week, doesn't speak spanish, and mainly sees pregnant diabetics. they use the phone service. they have interpreters sometimes. yes, it means the class standards, but it isn't the most beneficial way to deliver care, particularly to mono lingual patients and those who are less educated. in fairness, this coming january, there is supposed to be another diabetic educator, a nutritionist, not an r.n. at valencia. it's not clear how much time he or she will have. we're told that he or she knows basic spanish. it's not enough to meet sutter's policy of being certified to conduct ap
