Get Back On The Good Foot:
2nd High Risk Diabetic Foot Conference
Saturday, November 21, 2009

The mission of the conference will be to afford those with diabetes and other related chronic diseases the opportunity to benefit from the resources that are/ should be available but are often denied.

We will discuss building interdisciplinary teams to care for the difficult issues with diabetic patients. We will identify the strategies to improve self management through educational intervention and articulate the principles of wound care, limb salvage and amputations as they relate to maintaining maximum functional potential and their impact on the quality of life.

While attending this educational conference, there will be an collaboration between the healthcare professional and diabetic consumer--the missing link.
