Advancing Patient Outcomes Through Diabetes Prevention and Management Programs in Ohio (Live)

Help patients prevent diabetes—and manage it better

Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support (DSMES) and the National Diabetes Prevention Program (National DPP) are proven programs that help people make lasting changes. Yet many patients never get referred, or don’t know these services exist—especially in rural and underserved communities.

This 1-hour live webinar gives Ohio healthcare professionals practical ways to identify eligible patients, refer them, and partner with DSMES and DPP providers to improve outcomes.

Target Audience

This activity is designed for healthcare professionals involved in care for people with diabetes or prediabetes, including:

  • Physicians
  • Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants
  • Nurses
  • Pharmacists
  • Allied health professionals
  • Ambulatory, pharmacy, and community-based care teams

Learning Objectives

By the end of this webinar, you’ll be able to:

  • Differentiate how DSMES and the DPP complement traditional primary care and endocrinology-based diabetes management as catalysts for sustained behavior change and improved long-term outcomes.  
  • Apply interprofessional, team-based strategies to integrate DSMES and DPP into clinical and community workflows across Ohio. 
  • Evaluate the impact of DSMES and DPP on patient outcomes, including prevention, glycemic management, cardiometabolic risk reduction, patient activation, and health equity.
