ONLINE, SELF PACED WORKSHOP

This free 60-minute webinar aims to increase the Nurse’s familiarity, knowledge, and clinical suspicion of Prader Willi Syndrome (PWS).
PWS is a rare neurodevelopmental genetic multisystem disorder. Despite improvements in the diagnosis, patients still manage to go undiagnosed until later in life due to decreased knowledge and familiarity with the syndrome. This education is an attempt to increase the participant’s knowledge and familiarity with PWS to improve recognition. Evidence-based resources on PWS will also accompany the presentation.

Participants can register at any time and will receive an email with information on how to complete the class on their own time. This is not a live session, but an asynchronous session.
