Annual Diabetes Education for School Nurses: Diabetes Management in School Setting I organize our division’s annual School Nurse Diabetes Education Program for Riverside County and San Bernardino County School Districs. This program was launched in September 2022 and has been running for the past three years. This collaborative effort brings together physicians, nurses, dietitians, and social workers to provide practical, up-to-date training on diabetes management in the school setting. I coordinate the agenda, speakers, and materials to ensure the program addresses current challenges and supports school nurses in caring for students with diabetes. (09/2022 - 06/2025)
