Today the technology choices in the world of Diabetes seem to be changing very rapidly. Has that left you feeling less like an expert in your field? Does your work allow limited time to visit with your pump reps to learn about new technology? Are you unable to attend conferences regularly? Are you receiving diabetes publications but find it hard to find time to read them? If so, you're not alone. Keeping up to date can be a daunting task.
At the 2015 PA State Diabetes Conference, on May 14 & May 15, Diabetes: The Heart of the Matter, we've added a great opportunity to catch up. On May 14, from 10 am – 12 n, we are offering a non CE Pre-Conference Event: Human Factors Research applied to insulin Pump Therapy,
To Registration: http://www.myaadenetwork.org/e/in/eid=682
The pre conference was designed to give you valuable information related to pump therapy. Human Factors are necessary for regulatory reasons, they can improve user safety, and they can offer a competitive edge when used to design products that people want to use.
In addition to the presentation, you will have an opportunity to hear insulin pump representatives give a brief overview of what is new in the pump community and what they have to offer your patients. This is a great opportunity to meet some of your local representatives, get updates, ask questions and provide them with your information. They may not be the representative covering your territory, but they should be able to connect you with your local representative.
If you don't have the time or the money to attend the AADE conference in August of this year, please consider attending the 2015 PA State Diabetes Conference.
