Please Note: All scheduled courses (unless clearly indicated) are delivered online using an Interactive Blended Online Learning Model. This includes a blend of live webinars, workshops and Q&A sessions with clinical tutors combined with eLearning and videos; all designed to enable participants to build the knowledge and skills needed to successfully complete their course.
In this course, students will analyse the pathophysiology of diabetes and microvascular and macrovascular complications. They will critically analyse the relationship between risk factors and complications of diabetes and the effectiveness of screening programmes and diagnostic pathways. The course will support students in critically analysing evidence and guidelines for the use of pharmacological and non-pharmacological strategies to manage and prevent complications for those with or at risk of developing diabetes. The course is grounded in a person-centred approach to supporting patients with diabetes and their families and carers, and students will analyse the broader cultural and socio-economic factors that affect patients' abilities to manage their condition.
