Managing type 1 diabetes (T1D) in the classroom can be a little intimidating for children, parents and the school staff team. Whether your child/student is newly diagnosed, starting a new school year or working with a new school nurse, planning can seem overwhelming.

Breakthrough T1D, in partnership with Michael’s Miracles will host a virtual training for school nurses and staff who are caring for a student with T1D in their school on Wednesday, October 9 from 4:30-6:00 PM (ET).

This webinar is presented by Colleen Clark Chuo, RN, MA, CDCES, CPT.  ​Topics will include hyper/hypoglycemia, sick days, carb counting, technology overview (pumps/CGM), safe insulin administration, special occasions at school.  ​This course is open to school nurses, coaches and staff – anyone in the school setting who can benefit from learning more about caring for your child is welcome to join us.

The course is free but registration is required.
