EDUCATION to MEET THE CHALLENGES of DIABETES CARE

At a time when our diabetes knowledge and treatment options have advanced so much, why do clinical outcomes remain suboptimal, with so many patients unable to achieve good control of their disease?

The answer is rooted in four challenges:

  • Keeping pace with rapidly advancing clinical options for diabetes care:
    • Therapies
    • Technologies
    • Lifestyle medicine interventions
  • Designing comprehensive therapeutic interventions based on frequent diabetes-associated diseases and complications
  • Accounting for a patient’s unique biological, psychological, social, financial, educational, and cultural factors
  • Overcoming structural healthcare barriers that require clinical strategies to fit within a particular mold

This course is designed to equip clinicians to meet these challenges, providing practical, evidence-based approaches to optimize care for your patients.

STRATEGIES, UPDATES, and BEST PRACTICES for STATE-OF-THE-ART DIABETES CARE

This program affords you the opportunity to learn from leaders in the field of diabetes who are distinguished for their outstanding teaching, knowledge, and innovations in clinical care.

Participants can rely on this program for comprehensive education to ensure state-of-the-art treatment. Coverage includes:

  • Design of more effective treatment plans
  • Current anti-diabetes medications and how to use them
  • Diagnosis of different types of diabetes
  • Utilization of recent technology advances in diabetes care
  • Optimizing care for people with obesity
  • Assessing and treating cardiovascular and renal complications
  • Guiding patients on physical activity and medical nutrition
  • Management of hypertension and dyslipidemia
  • Addressing low engagement in therapy

NEW DATA and PRACTICE GUIDELINES for DIABETES CARE

  • The newest data on the identification of different types of diabetes
  • The latest scientific information on how to reduce cardiovascular and renal disease risk in patients with type 2 diabetes
  • New guidelines and practice recommendations for nutrition and physical activity coupled with instruction to incorporate them into your current approaches to diabetes care
  • Criteria to navigate the controversial data related to some anti-diabetes medications
  • Medical vs. surgical management of obesity
  • New technologies in diabetes care: updates and implications for day-to-day care
  • Research breakthroughs
  • Tips and tricks for navigating barriers within healthcare systems

ASSESSMENT and TREATMENT of COMPLICATIONS from DIABETES

The 2023 program provides education to assess and treat:

  • Cardiovascular Disease
  • Congestive Heart Failure
  • Renal Disease
  • Non-Alcoholic Liver Disease

OPTIMIZING HEALTH OUTCOMES for DIFFERENT PATIENTS

This program also provides comprehensive guidance to account for biological, psychological, emotional, social, financial, and cultural factors that impact the development and progression of diabetes.

Coverage includes:

  • Racial and ethnic minorities
  • The elderly
  • People with obesity
  • Patients at high cardiovascular risk
  • Individuals with low engagement in therapy
  • Patients at low socio-economic levels
  • Subjects with low health literacy/education
  • Individuals with depression/emotional distress
  • Patients with metabolic liver disease

PRACTICE IMPACT

Over four days, you will gain new, encompassing, evidence-based approaches to address the challenges seen in most clinical practices. More importantly, you will leave with knowledge—part art, part science—to make a real difference in the lives of your patients.

OPTIMIZED for REMOTE EDUCATION

The 2023 program has been enhanced for distance learning. In addition to being live streamed, all sessions will be recorded and made available to participants for online viewing for 60 days after the end of the course.

Along with recordings and course presentations, additional resources such as guidelines, recent articles and relevant patient education materials will also be available.
