Accredited Education – Bariatrics
Obesity is a significant problem in the United States and is associated with increased morbidity and mortality. The bariatric patient’s size, shape and weight require different resources, processes and protocols. KCI’s CE programs offer the clinician current information on the issues of bariatric patient care.

Online Learning (Self-Paced) Courses:
(These courses require the Flash Player Browser plug-in - available here). Because of videos in course it is best to have a higher connection speed than 28.8 k. A course certificate will be available to you upon completion.
