- Expansive Device Compatibility: Glooko seamlessly integrates with over 200 diabetes and health monitoring devices and apps, centralizing relevant health data and making it easily accessible.
- Clinic Dashboard for Diabetes Population Health Management: Our new clinic dashboard, available in select countries, provides CDCESs with at-a-glance insights of a clinic’s diabetes patient population, leading to more efficient, data-driven decisions.
- Seamless EHR Integrations: Our integrations with leading electronic health records (EHRs), including Epic, Oracle Health, MEDITECH, Greenway Health, eClinicalWorks, NextGen, and Athenahealth, securely centralizes diabetes and related health data, giving CDCESs a complete view of a patient’s health in one place and eliminating the hassle of platform switching and multiple logins.
- Educational Digital Care Programs: Glooko’s care programs complement the work of the CDCES by providing patients with structured education that advances their understanding of diabetes management.
- Easier Log-in with SSO: Single Sign-On (SSO) eliminates the need for multiple logins and passwords, cutting credential hassle so CDCESs can focus more time on delivering high-quality patient care.
- Exceptional Customer Support: Backed by rapid response times, an extensive help center, and U.S.-based support, CDCESs can spend less time troubleshooting technical issues and more time focused on their patients.
Glooko Advances the ADCES7 Self-Care Behaviors®
Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support (DSMES) is a program from the Association of Diabetes Care and Education Specialists (ADCES) designed to empower individuals with diabetes to manage their condition effectively. It’s structured around the ADCES7 Self-Care Behaviors, which represent seven critical areas of diabetes self-management.
CDCES professionals partner with patients with diabetes to help prioritize and improve their own management skills across these seven essential behaviors. CDCESs can leverage the Glooko Mobile App, which supports patients in tracking and managing each of these behaviors, to complement their own education and guidance:
- Healthy Eating: People living with diabetes can enter food into the Glooko Mobile App to better understand how nutrition affects their condition and well-being.
- Being Active: The app allows tracking of steps, fitness, and other exercises, helping users understand the impact of physical activity on their overall health and glycemic control.
- Taking Medication: Patients can track medication, set reminders, and enter notes about the impact of medications, which can be shared with care teams.
- Reducing Risk: Through its manual entry feature and compatibility with smart scales and blood pressure cuffs, the Glooko Mobile App can be used to monitor trends in weight and blood pressure.
- Problem Solving: The app helps users identify patterns in everything from nutrition and weight to insulin and glucose levels and solve challenges independently or through remote collaboration with their car team.
- Healthy Coping: People with diabetes can record notes in the Glooko Mobile App about their feelings, beliefs, challenges, and successes while managing their diabetes.
Users of the Glooko Mobile App also can access our comprehensive support center for troubleshooting and helpful tips, allowing them to make the most of the app’s features.
