PROMOTE
PROMOTE components includes 1) peer support, 2) remote patient monitoring of blood glucose (RPM), and 3) integration with clinical care. 1. Peer support delivered by community health workers focused on -- assistance in applying diabetes self-management in daily life, emotional and social support, linkage to clinical care, and ongoing, as-needed support. CHWs visits will include: one-on-one in-person visit, then weekly phone calls for 3 months, then monthly calls for 3 months. 2. RPM team will supply the device and supplies to participants. Data is transmitted electronically to the RPM team through broadband connectivity. Protocols have been developed for research projects; participants will be instructed to monitor blood glucose up to four times a day, based on medication regimen. Levels will be monitored 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. M-F. 3. A monthly report of peer support activities and RPM data will be sent to participants' primary care providers.
