Bone Health and Osteoporosis Course
Bone Health and Osteoporosis Course is organized by Get Your CEU.
Course Expires: 2/28/2024
Course Description:
This first-ever Surgeon General’s Report on bone health and osteoporosis describes the large burden that bone disease places on our Nation and its citizens. Like other chronic diseases that disproportionately affect the elderly, the prevalence of bone disease and fractures is projected to increase markedly as the population ages. If these predictions come true, bone disease and fractures will have a tremendous negative impact on the future well-being of Americans.
But, as this report makes clear, osteoporosis, fractures, and other chronic diseases no longer should be thought of as an inevitable part of growing old. By focusing on prevention and lifestyle changes, including physical activity and nutrition, as well as early diagnosis and appropriate treatment, Americans can avoid much of the damaging impact of bone disease and other chronic diseases.
