LPN and Diabetes Educator

Updated:   Published

Hey All,

I am wondering if LPNs can take the Canadian Diabetes Educator exam if they fit the criteria? The website says they must belong to a professional governing body so I am thinking they must be?

I am an RN with an amazing LPN working for my home care team and I think she should carry on with her diabetes teachings. Any one out there who knows for sure?

Thanks, N

contact whomever provides the certification. They may even have a website. If pharmacists and dieticians can be certified (in USA) surely the LVN can be also. Good luck with that
