D-HOMES Program for Type 2 Diabetes and Homelessness
This study is testing the "Diabetes Homeless Medication Support (D-HOMES) Program" to see if it helps adults with Type 2 diabetes who have recently experienced homelessness. You could be eligible if you are 18 or older, speak English or Spanish, and have a specific blood sugar level (HbA1c at or above 7.5). Researchers want to see if 10 one-on-one coaching sessions improve blood sugar control more than a single education session. The main goal is to see if participants in the D-HOMES program have better reductions in their HbA1c (a measure of average blood sugar over 2-3 months) after 3 months. The study aims to enroll 256 participants, but its current recruitment status is unclear.
- Study design
- This interventional study plans to enroll 256 participants. It compares two behavioral interventions: the D-HOMES program (10 sessions) and Enhanced Usual Care/Education (1 session).
- What's involved
- If you participate, you would either receive 10 one-on-one coaching sessions (30 minutes each over 12 weeks) or one 15-minute education session about diabetes.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Your HbA1c will be measured at 3, 6, and 12 months after starting the study to see the long-term effects.
