Additional Resources
As you complete modules, additional resources specific to them will appear below
The Low-Down handout contains practical tips to assess and advise your patients with diabetes about preventing and treating severe hypoglycemia
In cardiovascular disease we strive to prevent recurrent events (like heart attack or stroke) by intervening right after the event. Fractures are "bone attacks". Let’s have the same intention and attention to our patient’s bones to prevent “bone attacks”.
This resource is intended to help achieve that goal. Take a tour to see what these expert physicians are doing in that regard. You will gain some clinical pearls and tools to help you to help your patients towards the goal of no more fractures.
