Diabetes

Personally, I feel like a majority of inpatients have diabetes. Optimal blood sugar control has been proven to help recovery from multiple diseases including heart disease. Understanding how to initiate insulin and its adjustment is a skill which can be used daily. An endocrine consult month would help to learn insulin management as well as deal with more esoteric concepts as dealing with panhypopituitarism
