Course Description

In the Diabetes Education and Wellness course students will compare several nutrition and physical activity approaches and recommend which style might be best. This course is designed for students to understand several different models for inpatient diabetes education, as well as review several case studies on caring for people hospitalized with hyper or hypoglycemia. Students will select evidenced-based approaches to facilitate behavior change in persons living with diabetes. Students will also evaluate the link between the emotional side to diabetes and self-care behavior. Students will be expected to describe how many hours of aerobic exercise can increase insulin sensitivity, and what happens to those improvements in insulin action during times of overeating. Finally students will learn how to communicate with encouraging feedback to a person living with diabetes.
