title: New diabetes outreach network model created.
abstract: In conclusion, collaboration between the MDON, MNA, and DCP resulted in the development of a statewide model for offering MNA-approved continuing education to MDON contract agencies and the community. Educational programs are standardized, current, based on clinical practice and education standards, and taught uniformly throughout the state. Our next step will be to determine whether the patient outcomes of the CQL Project show a correlation between presentations conducted and positive outcomes for patient care and treatment.
