Bridging the Gap in Diabetes Management: Evaluating the NC State Pilot of the Health Extension for Diabetes (HED) Program
Objective
Examine the effectiveness of Heath Extension for Diabetes (HED) on the diabetes knowledge self-care self-efficacy, dietary intake and physical activity, and A1C (glucose control indicator) of adults with type 2 diabetes living in rural North Carolina (NC).
Use of Theory or Research
NC State Extension partnered with Clemson Extension and a community-based clinical partner to expand HED to three rural underserved counties.
Target Audience
Adults (18-64 years) with type 2 diabetes living in Bertie, Hertford, or Northampton County in NC
Program Description
HED is a 4-month community-based, non-clinical diabetes self-management support (DSMS) program delivered by trained Extension Agents. HED intervention consisted of eight biweekly group sessions with personalized follow-up between sessions to address participant goals and challenges. Clemson provided a 2-day onsite, intensive training to NC State faculty, staff, and Agents focused on program materials and implementation. NC Agents were provided ongoing training support through a 4-month virtual shadowing program, educational webinars, and monthly meetings.
Evaluation Methods
Data were collected at baseline (T1) and post-intervention (T2). Participants reported demographics, height/weight, diabetes knowledge and self-efficacy, nutrition, and physical activity behaviors. Clinical partners measured A1C (blood draw).
Results
A total of 22 individuals enrolled in four cohorts; 19 completed the program (86% retention). Participants were female, 61.05 years (SD 19.02), Black/African American (72.7%), and Non-Hispanic/Latina (68.2%). Knowledge (p< 0.01) and self-efficacy (p< 0.05) significantly improved. Participants’ reduced daily consumption of sweetened beverages (T1=18.2%, T2=9.1%, p< 0.03) and increased weekly physical activity (T1=4.5%, T2=18.2%, p< 0.03). BMI decreased by 2.63 (T1-BMI= 37.22 (SD 8.53); T2-BMI 192.82 lbs (SD 62.14), p< 0.001). A1C levels decreased but were not significant (T1=7.27% (SD=1.63); T2=6.21% (SD 2.25),p< 0.138).
Conclusions
Findings support the scalability of the HED program for providing effective, accessible, community-based diabetes education and support in rural underserved communities.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior (JNEB), the official journal of the Society for Nutrition Education and Behavior, is a refereed, scientific periodical that serves as a global resource for all professionals with an interest in nutrition education; nutrition and physical activity behavior theories and intervention outcomes; complementary and alternative medicine related to nutrition behaviors; food environment; food, nutrition, and physical activity communication strategies including technology; nutrition-related economics; food safety education; and scholarship of learning related to these areas.
The purpose of JNEB is to document and disseminate original research and emerging issues and practices relevant to these areas worldwide. The Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior welcomes evidence-based manuscripts that provide new insights and useful findings related to nutrition education research, practice and policy. The content areas of JNEB reflect the diverse interests in nutrition and physical activity related to public health, nutritional sciences, education, behavioral economics, family and consumer sciences, and eHealth, including the interests of community-based nutrition-practitioners. As the Society''s official journal, JNEB also includes policy statements, issue perspectives, position papers, and member communications.
