The American Association of Diabetes Educators (AADE) announces the addition of Diabetes
Resource Connection as an online resource service for its members.
“Diabetes Resource Connection offers a single place for AADE members to find a full array of
unbiased, diabetes and other product resources, easy to search and easy to order, all at no cost,”
said AADE Chief Executive Officer Lana Vukovljak. “Having it all in one place will be a big time
saver.”
Resources include over 10,000 patient education materials, product coupons, samples and
vouchers, product information and a variety of patient assistance programs for each product. They
represent over 1,200 commercially available products, covering classes both within and outside of
diabetes care. AADE materials will also be readily accessible through Diabetes Resource
Connection.
AADE members will also have the ability to connect with industry and peers, participate in
market research and easily find clinical trials suitable for their patients by searching the
largest U.S. clinical trial database with an easy-to-use search interface.
Founded in 1973,
AADE is a multi-disciplinary professional membership organization dedicated
to improving diabetes care through education. With more than 12,000 professional members including
physicians, nurses, dietitians, pharmacists, and others, AADE has a vast network of practitioners
involved in the daily treatment of diabetes patients. Collectively, our alliances, member
practitioner networks, and academic partners uniquely position AADE at the locus of change for the
future treatment of diabetes.
Healthcare Resources Online has designed
this platform to be used by professional associations, a naturally trusted, resource-based and
educational environment, to promote better communication, information exchange and ultimately
better utilization of resources with patients.
