About the Presentation:
The key message of the presentation was that integrating a Registered Pharmacist into a Diabetes Care team can have a significant impact on patients that have challenges managing their diabetes. The presenters discussed how the grant was incorporated into their Diabetes Self- Management Education (DSMES) classes and how it provided patients with private one-on-one consults with the pharmacist. Successes achieves through the program and the outlook for the future of the program were also shared with attendees.
Outcomes:
Presenters from the Central Ohio Diabetes Association were able to speak with attendees from Ohio Health and Mt. Carmel health system to gauge potential collaboration on the project. They were able to obtain contacts for follow-up conversations
