Nurses play a unique role as health care professionals and members of primary care teams. Nurses provide critical clinical expertise, work closely with physicians and other team members to coordinate care for patients, engage patients in diabetes self-management, and bring a holistic approach to patient care. The Diabetes Campaign will support nurses and the practices in which they work across the State to help them achieve positive outcomes for patients with diabetes.

The webinar offers primary care providers, nurses, and health educators information to help identify and stop pedal problems in the primary care setting. Presented by Dr.Craig Herman, director of podiatry at Community Healthcare Network, the webinar is part of the CHCANYS Diabetes Learning Series.
