With our team-based focus on contributing partners, clinical collaboration, and co-production with people living with diabetes, we are excited to share the agenda, give you a glimpse at the guest speakers travelling to this learning session, and highlight what we will get to see and hear from our co-hosts at Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta and Grady Memorial Hospital.
Learning Session Objectives:
- Synthesize a basis for the practice of delivering equitable, evidence based, cost effective diabetes care, both person-centered and population based in a learning health network.
- Integrate current clinical science, health outcomes research, quality improvement methodologies, drug therapies, education, and technology into clinical practice.
- Become more informed and involved in advocacy issues related to diabetes care.
- To provide a forum for resident education on current clinical practice, relevant diabetes care, practice management, and advocacy issues in preparation for careers and competent and ethical diabetes clinicians.
We are so glad to have you with us. Here’s to making life with diabetes better for everyone.
