My Tip for This Week: Continue Your Education

To some people, continuing education has an undeserved reputation for being all about “community birdhouse-making night classes.” In reality, the topic of continuing education covers a broad spectrum of learning activities and programs, which can even include degree courses and career training. Many fields requires a certain number of continuing education hours to be completed each year so that employers can ensure you are up to date on the latest techniques and development in your field. One of the most common fields in which continuing education is demanded is the field of medicine.

As studies and discoveries change the protocols for everything from dosages to diagnoses, medical personnel must stay current in order to provide the best care. Using outdated techniques can sometimes cause more harm than good, and if there is a better solution for treatment, it is only through constant study that it will be developed. Furthermore, it never hurts to get a “refresher” on the basics—things you do everyday without thinking can sometimes become dangerous if you aren’t thinking about them. One of the medical conditions that can benefit most from the most continuing education is diabetes. As studies are done, new strides can be taken with this disease, including general treatment and diabetic care.

As a diabetic, it is smart to consider it your obligation—as well as your health providers’—to continually educate yourself, not only with how to build a better birdhouse but how enjoy better nutrition, how to communicate better with doctors and nurses, and how to take better care of your body so that your diabetes does not become life-threatening. Most continuing education courses are geared toward making your career more fulfilling and productive—why not apply that to your life and health as well?
