Essential Injection Technique Education for Patients

Learn how to provide proper injection techniques to patients with diabetes and/or other disease states that require injectable therapeutic delivery.

According to the Institute of Safe Medication Practice,

Insulin Administration Errors are one of the Nation’s Biggest Threats to Patient Safety

  • Insulin has been associated with more medication errors than any other type or class of drug. 
  • Insulin is the leading drug involved in harmful medication errors
  • It represents 16% of all medication error events with reported harm.
  • Injection technique, needle size, and needle reuse are significant factors that contribute to managing positive therapeutic outcomes for diabetic patients. 

Be Part Of The Solution

That’s why CEimpact partnered with ambulatory care and diabetes expert, Dr. Stephanie Bellows, to create education on proper injection techniques.

Gone are the days when we could rely on what we learned in pharmacy school or on the job training for up-to-date diabetes management.  

Our practice is rapidly changing and diabetes, especially proper injection technique, needle management, and patient safety, is no exception. 

Join us as we take you through a 1-hour CE on current gold standards of education your patients on proper injection technique.  

With Our Injection Technique Education, You'll Learn To:

To eliminate misinformation regarding safe needle use and injection techniques.

Describe common injectable diabetes medications and their correct administration

To break down barriers of diabetes education and improve high quality access to care.

Bridge The Gap

By enrolling in this expert-level diabetes education training, you will bridge knowledge gaps between the patient and their diabetes care. 

By being confident in your ability to properly educate patients on injection technique, you will enhance patient outcomes, improve patient experiences, and promote valuable education, while simultaneously providing the highest quality of care to your patients.

  • Distinguish yourself as an up-to-date expert for injectable medications used to treat patients with diabetes.
  • Expand your scope of education and training to directly benefit patients through improved diabetes management, enhanced education, increased patient engagement, minimized injection side effects, and better overall quality of life.

Traditional Methods Are No Longer Working

Traditional patient education methods are no longer yielding effective results. Diabetes outcomes are worsening, patients’ quality of life is declining, and both mortality rates and diabetes-related costs are increasing.

Due to the increasing rise of diabetes prevalence and continuous poor outcomes, every pharmacy professional must be up to date on injection techniques and diabetes management. Whether your practice is in the community or acute care setting, diabetes training is applicable to all patients, therefore all pharmacists.
