Family Model Diabetes Self-Management Education in Faith Based Organizations

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Type 2 Diabetes

In brief

This study's objective is to conduct a cluster randomized control study that evaluates the effectiveness of F-DSME (Family Model Diabetes Self-Management Education) when delivered in a group setting in Marshallese Faith Based Organizations (FBO). The F-DSME has shown to be effective when delivered in patients' homes, and the proposed research will allow us to determine the F-DSME's effectiveness in a FBO setting.
