Completion Date

Summary

The overall goal of this study is to examine the efficacy of the video-based Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support (DSMES) (hereafter VIDEO), or the video-based DSMES+community health worker (CHW) intervention (hereafter VIDEO+CHW), compared with a wait-list control group (hereafter CONTROL) to improve glycemic control among Chinese immigrants with uncontrolled Type 2 diabetes in NYC.

Detailed Description

Participants will be randomized with equal allocation to one of the 3 groups. The VIDEO group will receive 1 DSMES brief video/week for 24 weeks delivered via text message. The VIDEO+CHW group will receive the same DSMES videos plus bi-weekly support calls from a CHW for 24 weeks. The CHW will assess participants' social determinants of health (SDOH) barriers to Type 2 diabetes care and link them to available resources in the community. The CONTROL group will continue to receive their usual care and at the end of the study, they will receive DSMES videos.
