Self-efficacy, Beliefs and Adherence- Pilot and Feasibility Trial of a Pharmacist-led Intervention

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Diabetes Mellitus

In brief

This study uses an intervention mixed methods design. The overall purpose is to improve medication adherence and assess the clinical impact on diabetes outcomes among patients with uncontrolled diabetes. We will examine if usual care combined with a clinic-based health literacy/psychosocial support intervention improves medication adherence compared to usual care alone. A randomized controlled trial will be conducted at William S. Middleton Memorial Veterans Hospital in Madison, targeting individuals with uncontrolled diabetes. The patient-centered health literacy intervention will focus on enhancing patients' self-efficacy and addressing patients' negative beliefs in medicine and illness.
