Mitigate Therapeutic Inertia with Strengths-Based, Person-Centered Messages is organized by Association of Diabetes Care & Education Specialists (ADCES).
Originally presented on: 8/4/2023
Expiration date: 8/4/2025
Description:
There is growing support for changing the language we use when speaking to or about people with diabetes; DCESs are acutely aware of the problem messages heard by people with diabetes and the harm it can do. In fact, our messages can also have an impact on therapeutic inertia. This session will provide background on the connection between diabetes-related messages and therapeutic inertia as well as suggestions for ways to mitigate this problem by choosing strengths-based, person-centered messages. We will also discuss ways to help our professional colleagues adopt these changes.

Attendees will apply evidence-based solutions and interventions for equitable healthcare, including comprehensive care for individuals with diabetes and related conditions, addressing behavioral health concerns, advocating for sustainable technology-enabled care, implementing interprofessional team practices, and enhancing clinical care and support in diverse settings.
