Team Management of Diabetes information
|
The prevention, diagnosis and management of diabetes is a growing concern as the number of people affected by diabetes rises. To help you meet this challenge, we offer Team Management of Diabetes. This program provides a practical opportunity for health care professionals to expand their knowledge of diabetes.
Three full days of lectures, case studies and hands-on learning activities help you learn the latest advances in diabetes management, care, education and practice. Whether you need an overall refresher, have recently added diabetes care to your responsibilities, or are preparing for the CDE exam, this program provides a comprehensive foundation.
New information, plus continually updated presentations and activities, keep this program fresh, even for experienced professionals. Past attendees can benefit from completing the program again, to stay current.
