The Treatment of Diabetes From Pediatrics to Geriatrics a Focus on Outpatient
and Inpatient Management
A knowledge-based activity.
LAGUARDIA MARRIOTT HOTEL
PURPOSE:
Diabetes mellitus is a global epidemic and one of the leading chronic diseases in
adults and pediatrics. Its long term consequences translate into enormous human
suffering and economic costs. The increased demands on the healthcare system
has created new avenues for pharmacy reimbursement. Diabetes education programs
are emerging from hospital settings to the community pharmacy. In 2007
the ADA added pharmacists as recognized providers for diabetes self management
education (DSME). Pharmacists are now recognized as providers in diabetes care.
Pharmacists are in a unique position to handle diabetes care because patients with
diabetes already make regular pharmacy visits for medications, supplies, and
advice. The ADA is making an effort to move DSME out of the traditional hospital
setting and into the community.
OBJECTIVES:
At the completion of this program, the participant will be able to: 1. Explain how
glycemic control in the hospitalized patient differs from glycemic control in the
outpatient diabetic; 2. Compare and contrast the treatment and management of
diabetes in the pediatric patient versus the geriatric patient; 3. Identify tactics to
promote healthy lifestyle behavior for people with diabetes or for people at risk of
acquiring diabetes; 4. Describe the importance of pharmacists as recognized
providers in diabetes care; 5. Discuss how to develop a diabetes self management
education program recognized by the ADA.
Continuing Education Credits The College has assigned 5 hours (0.5
ACUs) for attendance and completion of the program evaluation at this seminar.
Statements of continuing pharmacy education credit will be mailed within six
weeks of the program.
