Every year people across the globe celebrate World Diabetes Day. This year, residents of Rhode Island will celebrate on Tuesday, November 12, 2024, from 8 a.m. – 12 p.m. in Warwick. We extend a warm invitation to healthcare professionals and colleagues to participate in a cost-free morning filled with helpful, eye-opening, and enlightening presentations, discussions, and Q&A sessions.
Connect with fellow healthcare professionals from across the state in a complimentary morning filled with enlightening and motivational presentations, interactive discussions, and informative Q&A sessions. These thoughtfully prepared presentations are designed to provide you with the most recent information to expand your knowledge base while connecting with fellow MDs, PAs, NPs, RNs, RDs, Pharmacists, CHWs and Social Workers. Attendees will be eligible for CME/CE credits for participating. Light refreshments will be available.
Keep an eye on the Providence skyline! We’ll be lighting up the State House in blue (Nov. 7-14) in recognition of RI World Diabetes Day!
