Course Description
The Certificate Course in Diabetic Footcare is a specialized educational program designed to provide healthcare professionals with comprehensive knowledge, skills, and training to effectively manage foot-related complications in individuals with diabetes.
In India, diabetes affects approximately 70 million individuals, making it a major health concern with a high prevalence. Diabetic foot disease, including foot ulcers, is particularly worrisome, affecting around 15% of people with diabetes in India. The risk of limb amputation for individuals with diabetes is shockingly 10-30 times higher compared to those without diabetes. Diabetes is responsible for 8 out of 10 non-traumatic limb amputations, with 85% of cases directly linked to diabetic foot ulcers. This condition has a profound impact on patients’ physical, emotional, and financial well-being. Unfortunately, a lack of awareness and knowledge among doctors often leads to the neglect of foot examinations in diabetic patients.
Addressing this critical gap, the comprehensive Certificate Course in Diabetic Footcare aims to deliver evidence-based education on diabetic foot care, encompassing an understanding of the causes and mechanisms underlying foot ulcers in diabetes, effective screening methods, and essential skills for managing and preventing foot ulcers. By completing the Diabetic Footcare course, healthcare professionals will be empowered to incorporate foot care into their professional responsibilities, resulting in improved overall care for individuals with diabetes.
The Certificate Course in Diabetic Footcare incorporates interactive elements, case studies, and practical demonstrations. The course enables participants to develop a comprehensive understanding of diabetic foot care, equipping them to provide evidence-based and patient-centered care. By emphasizing the importance of regular foot examinations, early identification of at-risk individuals, and implementing preventive measures, healthcare professionals can make a tangible impact in reducing the incidence of diabetic foot ulcers and amputations.
Through the widespread adoption of this course and the dissemination of knowledge gained, healthcare professionals will be better equipped to offer comprehensive foot care to individuals with diabetes, significantly improving their overall health and well-being.
Course validity: 4 months. There will be an extra charge for the extension of the course validity.
