Children and Diabetes 4/25/17

According to the American Diabetes Association, children with type 2 diabetes are at increased risk for high blood pressure and kidney disease and their disease appears to progress more rapidly. Ms. Magnani will discuss strategies for managing diabetes in school-age children, including maintaining blood sugar targets. She will describe the social and psychological challenges experienced by children with diabetes and provide ways that parents and school staff can help the child. Finally, she will review the devices used to treat diabetes and provide a range of resources for school staff and families.

Professional development hours and a certificate will be awarded to all attendees.
