Sickle Cell Disease & Diabetes

Описание: Sickle Cell Disease & Diabetes // This past Tuesday, I did an Instagram LIVE over Sickle Cell Disease/Trait as it relates to the Hgb A1c test. In this brief video, I go over why a nurse practitioner should be aware of Sickle Cell and other hemoglobinopathies in their African American patients with diabetes. To catch the LIVE sessions, make sure you are following me on Instagram @thediabetesnp and turn your notifications on so you know when I go Live!

Welcome to Kim E. The Diabetes NP Channel!!! My name is Kim E. and I have a love and passion for prediabetes and Diabetes Mellitus Type 2. I went on a journey a while ago to build upon my knowledge of the disease and found it difficult to find concise and useful information. I realized at that moment that we, as nurse practitioners, needed a resource like this. As I began learning more about the disease and the new advances in education and management, I wanted to be apart of the solution for my fellow colleagues. If this is something that interests you, please come along with me as we grow in our knowledge of Diabetes to better serve our patients.
