Overview
This program aims to equip primary care professionals with the skills to manage type 2 diabetes more effectively, particularly those who may be hesitant to prescribe glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RA). It focuses on applying motivational interviewing techniques to engage patients, developing personalized strategies, and improving medication adherence. The program also emphasizes the use of the latest diabetes management guidelines and therapies, specifically GLP1-RAs, to lower A1C levels and reduce hypoglycemia risk. It encourages understanding their mechanism of action, dosing optimization, administration, glycemic and extra-glycemic effects, safety, tolerability, and place in therapy. Additionally, it guides professionals to develop efficient clinic workflows and communication skills and to identify and overcome barriers contributing to therapeutic inertia and medication reluctance through patient-centered communication and decision-making processes.
Objectives - Apply motivational interview techniques to effectively engage patients in their diabetes management, develop and implement personalized educational strategies tailored to individual patient needs, and utilize various methods to monitor and improve medication adherence among patients with T2D.
- Employ the latest diabetes management guidelines, algorithms, and therapies to increase awareness of the lower risk of hypoglycemia with the use of GLP1-RAs to lower A1C and understand the mechanism of action, dosing optimization, and administration, glycemic and extra-glycemic effects, safety and tolerability information, and place in therapy.
- Develop and implement efficient clinic workflows and communication skills to enhance diabetes care and patient management.
- Identify and overcome barriers contributing to therapeutic inertia and medication reluctance through patient-centered communication and decision-making processes.
