Lately, there has been increased attention on the relationship between hyperglycemia and vascular dementia, sometimes referred to as Type 3 Diabetes. Our first article, contributed by Christine Craig, MS, RD, CDCES, explores the multifaceted link between diabetes and cognitive impairment, highlighting strategies to protect against this progressive condition.
Next is a celebration of National Pharmacists Month. Our article features two of my favorite pharmacists and recognizes their invaluable contributions to improving care in the inpatient and outpatient settings. We also appreciate their expansive knowledge of pharmacology and its application to promoting the best diabetes care. Thank you, pharmacists, for all that you do!
Our guest contributor, Jane Giambrone, RN, CDCES, CPCC, shares her insights on providing person-centered coaching that starts where people are at in their journey while recognizing the importance of creating a judgment-free space.
We are thrilled to introduce our new Artists Corner, and you are invited to participate! At DiabetesEd, we celebrate the expression of art and creativity to bring beauty and healing to individuals and communities. Each month, we will highlight a different artistic contribution. This month, we highlight our very own Tiffany Bergeron, who picked up painting during the pandemic and hasn’t put down her brushes since. It’s an honor to share her art with you.
As always, we encourage you to test your knowledge with the question and rationale of the week.
Lastly, I want to give a big shout-out to my incredible team, who have been working non-stop to prepare for our upcoming San Diego Conference. We look forward to sharing time with over 100 diabetes educators and advocates in a beautiful setting.
We hope your fall is off to a good start. We can’t wait to announce our list of activities for National Diabetes Month in November.
