Course DescriptionCourse Description The TCOYD Continuing Medical Education Program offers a unique opportunity to bridge patient and professional education, demonstrating the link between clinical lessons in the classroom to the real life patient experience. The ultimate goal of this activity is to educate caregivers about the most effective cutting edge strategies to help patients with diabetes reach their treatment goals and avoid the associated acute and chronic complications. This program also aims to achieve caregiver appreciation of the many previously unrealized concerns that affect patient adherence or non-adherence with a prescribed medical regimen. In addition, this course is being held in tandem with a separate, yet similar, large-scale patient education conference and will give providers the opportunity to observe and interact with people who have diabetes and are engaged in their own intensive educational environment. Making that connection with patients, providers will acquire new skills and insight into what empowers patients with diabetes to develop healthy self-management of their condition. This activity will focus on three distinct areas of diabetes management, and integrate case presentations into the lectures to facilitate more active audience participation. The three areas are:
Participants will be encouraged to consider the various therapeutic options they learn throughout the day, as well as any barriers to good control that a particular case may present. The goal is to encourage providers to consider these cases as whole individuals, taking into account their lifestyle, beliefs, background and environment when deciding upon treatment options. Target Audience This course is designed for diabetes healthcare providers including: endocrinologists, primary care physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, certified diabetes educators, and other medical professionals wanting to expand their knowledge of diabetes management.
