Course Description
Healthcare providers (HCPs) encounter significant challenges when treating patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). HCPs should be cognizant of when to change or intensify treatment and be aware of options that are non-optimal. As such, HCPs need to be equipped with current professional guidelines, the latest clinical evidence on new and emerging therapies for T2D, and strategies for engaging patients in shared decision-making to effectively prioritize weight management and promote comprehensive T2D care.
Explore the 3-part on-demand series, Shedding Light on Type 2 Diabetes: Weight Management & Future Breakthroughs. This collaborative effort, in conjunction with local AAFP Chapter meetings, provides expert guidance and clinical best practices to understand the impact of weight on T2D outcomes, weight management as a treatment for T2D, and effective strategies for shared decision-making in T2D care. Key topics in Part 3: Effective Strategies for Shared Decision-Making in T2D Care include:
- Finding value in shared decision-making and the unique role of multidisciplinary teams: Emphasizing the role of the multidisciplinary team supportive care network and techniques for initiating discussions around weight management and patient priorities
