Louella Belle & DUET Diabetes Team Up to Launch Virtual Workshop
Louella
Belle and DUET diabetes Team Up To Launch Evergreen Diabetic Foot Awareness Virtual
Workshop
Following on from the
success of the live course, Louella Belle and DUET diabetes are delighted to
announce the launch of the Evergreen Diabetic Foot Awareness workshop,
available to view virtually on www.louellabelle.academy in student's own time. This is certified
after completing and passing the course and exam.
After the
coronavirus pandemic, online learning has never been more important and pivotal
in the learning and growth of beauty and wellness therapists. We want to be
able to support our industry and customers and providing a course that allows
students to train at their own convenience makes complete sense.
This Evergreen
Diabetic Foot Awareness workshop is designed for beauty and wellness therapists
to understand the diabetic foot and feel confident of when to treat and when to
leave alone. Students will also learn what advice (within their scope of
practice, and not of a clinical nature) to give as well as when to encourage
clients to seek additional footcare (from a healthcare professional) if they
spot signs of foot problems. You could be part of the solution to help reduce
the 169 diabetes related amputations that take place in England each week**!
With the NHS
spending more on diabetic footcare in England than the combined cost of breast,
prostate and lung cancers; with over 90% of expenditure relating to ulceration* Having
a foot ulcer can have a huge impact on someone's health and wellbeing.
This workshop
covers:
- What
diabetes is and associated signs and symptoms
- A brief
overview of the short/long term effects (complications) of diabetes
- What is
a foot ulcer?
- The
observable risk factors leading to foot problems
- Suitable
and unsuitable footwear for people with diabetes
- The
causes of neuropathy and peripheral arterial disease (PAD)
- The appropriate
action to take and advice to give clients
The session
is pre-recorded by an experienced Podiatrist from DUET diabetes.
