Diabetes Awareness

Diabetes Awareness

More than 4 million people in the UK are living with diabetes, and every week, the condition leads to more than 169 amputations, 680 strokes, 530 heart attacks and almost 2,000 cases of heart failure. As one of the fastest-growing health conditions in the country, it’s vital for anyone in a position of care to have a deeper understanding of what diabetes is and how to treat those affected. Our Diabetes Awareness training course is ideal for those in the education, health and social care sectors who look after or support someone with diabetes.

Description

With diabetes being the fastest growing health threat in the UK, understanding diabetes is vital in the provision of effective care. Diabetes can be fatal if emergencies aren’t recognised and managed effectively, and this course ensures learners know what to look for and how to administer the correct treatment.

This online diabetes training will provide your team with a deeper knowledge of diabetes, such as the key differences between type 1 and type 2 diabetes, how the condition can be managed, how to recognise emergency situations, and understand the complications associated with diabetes.
