ADA Continues Member-Exclusive "Hands On" Webinar Series
In September, the American Diabetes Association (ADA)
kicked off its latest members-only webinar series titled,
"Hands On: Tips to Improve Diabetes Care." This lineup of
webinars is designed to address timely topics in diabetes
care by convening experts who bring unique lenses to
the discussion, using case studies to demonstrate key
points, and leaving the audience with five practical tips to
incorporate in their diabetes practice.
"Despite working in diabetes for years, I have already learned
some helpful and practical tips from this webinar series," said
Joseph A. Aloi, MD, chair of the Diabetes Technology Interest
Group. "I have been very impressed with the usefulness of
the information presented and look forward to attending
other sessions."
After tackling several diabetes technology topics in
September and October, the series will continue with a
variety of sessions devoted to primary care and behavioral
health in the coming months.
"Diabetes care is constantly changing, and those changes
can make it difficult to stay on top of the latest information
and resources," said Piek Tan, RD, CDN, CDCES, chair of
the Diabetes in Primary Care Interest Group. "As a primary
care clinician with a demanding schedule, I appreciate
the convenient opportunity to tune in to these webinars
for an hour and walk away with actionable tips that I can
immediately put into practice."

Future sessions will include:
* December 8: Diabetes Care Beyond the Rx: Helping
Patients Use Diet and Exercise to Achieve Goals
* January 12, 2021: Diabetes Management in Primary Care:
Avoiding Common Pitfalls and Effectively Intensifying
Therapies
