About this Podcast
HOST: Welcome to our podcast, today we're talking with Dr. Sophie Williams, a renowned expert in the field of diabetes and oral health. She's here to discuss her new course, the 'Certificate Programme in Diabetes and Oral Health'. Dr. Williams, can you tell us what inspired you to create this course? GUEST: Absolutely, I've seen a growing number of patients with diabetes who also struggle with oral health issues. There's a clear link between the two, and I wanted to create a comprehensive course to help healthcare professionals better manage these complex cases. HOST: That's fascinating. Can you share any current trends in this area that you're seeing? GUEST: Certainly, there's a growing recognition of the importance of interprofessional collaboration in diabetes and oral health management. This course emphasizes that, teaching healthcare professionals to work together more effectively for better patient outcomes. HOST: That sounds crucial. Now, what would you say are some of the challenges faced in this field or when teaching this subject? GUEST: One major challenge is the lack of awareness about the connection between diabetes and oral health. Many patients and even healthcare professionals don't realize how closely these two areas are related. This course aims to address that gap. HOST: And looking forward, what do you think the future holds for this area or industry? GUEST: I believe we'll see more integrated care models for patients with diabetes, including a stronger focus on oral health. This course is part of that movement, equipping healthcare professionals with the knowledge and skills to provide comprehensive care.
