	Addressing Psychosocial Challenges and Behavior Change in Diabetes:The Problem of Hypoglycemia in Diabetes Care: An Integrative Overview of the Latest Behavioral, Pharmacological, and Technological Solutions This program has been designed as a one-day, interactive, case-based workshop devoted to helping HCPs recognize the widespread problems associated with hypoglycemia to improve their ability to identify problematic hypoglycemia (and the associated consequences, such as profound hypoglycemic fear), and to more confidently address such problems through the judicious use of currently available medications, diabetes technology tools, and innovative behavioral strategies. By the conclusion of the program, participants will have a more comprehensive understanding of the problem of hypoglycemia in T1D and T2D populations, including the potentially profound medical and psychological costs that often accrue. They will become adept at recognizing and understanding the common problematic presentations, will be able to assess and decipher the medical and behavioral aspects of complex case presentations and select the most critical issues that need to be addressed, will gain confidence in modifying medication regimens and using and prescribing the most appropriate diabetes technology tools, will be able to communicate more effectively and collaboratively with their patients in addressing hypoglycemic problems, and will have acquired the skills and comfort to engage with their patients in providing the needed education and promoting appropriate changes in self-care.
