The research employed a quasi-experimental, single-group, pretest - posttest design. Methods: Twenty-three participants participated in a 12-week nursing case management program, which was tailored to the individual's needs and abilities, as well as their family, community, and healthcare context. Self-care behaviors increased significantly (<i>p</i> = .000) after implementation of the case management program, while waist circumference, fasting capillary blood glucose, and hemoglobin A1c decreased significantly (<i>p</i> = .001, <i>p</i> = .000, <i>p</i> = .003, respectively) from pre-intervention values. Quality of life was significantly better after the program (<i>p</i> = .000) than before. Results suggest that implementing tailored nursing case management could increase self-care behaviors and quality of life while decreasing waist circumference, fasting capillary blood glucose, and hemoglobin A1c in community-dwelling older adults with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes.

The main variables of VPLSE comprise four sub-domains: nursing knowledge improvement, clinical competency development, confidence in nursing performance, and nursing care plan application. In addition to the VPLSE, two other tools, measuring virtual presence and self-efficacy, were utilized. The VPLSE was significantly positively correlated with virtual presence and self-efficacy, respectively. The VPLSE subdomain of \"clinical competency development\" had a strong positive correlation with virtual presence.

This qualitative study used a grounded theory methodology guided by Charmaz's inductive social constructivist approach. Data were collected using open-ended semi-structured interviews and focus groups with CHWs who worked in community-based and hospital-based programs in California, Oregon, Illinois, Texas, South Carolina, New York, and Maine. Thirty-two CHWs participated, with 95% of participants being of Latinx and African American ethnicity. They served women from Latinx, African American, and Migrant communities. The CHW communication strategies represent aspects of respect and client-centered care and are applied in the development of a theoretical framework. CHWs were able to build and sustain trust at the initial encounter through these specific strategies: 1) addressing immediate needs related to social determinants of health; 2) embodying mannerisms and dress; 3) speaking appropriately to the client's age, culture, and knowledge; 4) easing client's fears through locus of control, and 5) allowing for time flexibility. These findings have implications for practice through interventions to train healthcare providers to build trust with low-income women of color who have a historical distrust of the healthcare system and who are at risk for maternal-child health disparities. Future research is recommended to explore how the communication trust-building constructs also benefit all other groups at similar risk, including those with mental health disorders and infectious diseases. The findings indicate specific communication strategies through which trust can be built, beginning at the initial encounter with low-income women at risk for maternal-child health disparities and who have a historical distrust of the healthcare system.</p>","PeriodicalId":51084,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Community Health Nursing","volume":"40 3","pages":"219-231"},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9648589","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
