Rheumatoid Arthritis Across the Lifespan: Evidence-Based Approaches for Primary and Specialty Care
Learn to recognize, diagnose, and manage rheumatoid arthritis with updated guidelines, treatment strategies, and tools for improving outcomes and promoting equitable, patient-centered care.

About this course
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, systemic autoimmune disorder with the potential to cause irreversible joint damage, functional decline, and significant comorbidities if not diagnosed and managed promptly. Given its varied clinical presentations, complex pathophysiology, and evolving treatment landscape, general healthcare providers are increasingly called upon to play a central role in early detection, coordinated care, and patient education. This comprehensive training addresses the critical need for updated, evidence-based knowledge across the care continuum, including diagnostic reasoning, therapeutic strategies, health disparities, and patient self-management. By equipping clinicians with current guidelines, interdisciplinary tools, and practical frameworks, the course supports improved outcomes and equity for individuals affected by RA across all age groups.
