Diabetes in Children: Treating Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes and Considering Issues Unique to Childhood
6 Hrs
Course expiration date: 5/17/2020

Diabetes is becoming more common in the pediatric population and nurses, as well as other healthcare professionals, have a responsibility to understand the key components of diabetes management in children and teens. Managing type 1 and type 2 diabetes means that the nurse not only provides direct patient care, but also education for patients and families in order for the patient to safely manage their diabetes at home and away from the medical environment. The nurse should not only be familiar with the ways in which to treat diabetes at home, but also the warning signs and reasons for bringing the child or teen to the hospital for immediate emergency care. The nurse will need to consider the child’s age and developmental stage when providing patient/family education and should inform parents of what to expect, physically, emotionally, and socially, according to the child’s developmental maturity. The nurse should recognize the unique stages and challenges of each age group when it comes to dietary management and the use of insulin, and also the psychosocial issues that may put the child’s life in danger, including possible substance abuse, eating disorders, and rebellious behavior that may occur during the years of adolescence. This course will cover the symptoms, risk factors, diagnosis, screenings, complications, and management of type 1 and type 2 diabetes in the pediatric population, as well as provide online diabetes resources that nurses can share with families.

Nurse Practitioner’s Guide to Prescribing Controlled Substances – Focus on Opioids
4 Hrs 4 Hrs

Course expiration date: 8/24/2021


Appropriate prescribing practices are critical for all medications, but drugs that are considered controlled substances require additional attention. The Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA), along with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), all have a role in determining the scheduling of prescription medications. As prescribers, it is critical that nurse practitioners understand not only federal but state requirements for prescribing all controlled substances. In addition, inappropriately prescribing opioids, resulting in their misuse and abuse, has led to many changes, including new safety and quality recommendations that must be considered. This course will provide a general review of federal and state controlled substance regulations and the prescribing of all controlled substances in general, as well as focus on clinical and safety considerations when prescribing opioid medications for acute and chronic pain not related to cancer.
