Darnell
• 19 years old• Type 2 diabetes for two years (he thinks)• His mother has Type 2 diabetes and goes to dialysis 3 times a week• His grandmother has diabetes and had toes, foot, then leg
amputated below the knee; since the age of 14, he has been responsible for administering her insulin

what it was for
What are the next steps for Darnell? How can he manage his diabetes?
What will you do for him?
Disease Process
Type 1• Beta cell destruction that
causes insulin deficiency• Genetic predisposition• Environmental exposure• Most often occurs before
30 years old• Sudden onset• Ketosis
Type 2• Insulin secretory deficiency• Insulin resistance• Increased production of
glucose from the liver• Most often occurs after age
30• Genetic predisposition• Obese• Ketoacidosis is rare until
late in disease progression or with severe hyperglycemia

Goals for Treatment
• A1C below 7%• BG 70-130 before meals• BG Below 180 1-2 hours after meals• Blood Pressure below 130/80• LDL below 100• Smoking cessation• Annual dilated eye exam

AADE7™ Self Care Behaviors
“Measurable behavior change is the desired outcome of diabetes education.”•Healthy eating•Being active•Taking medication•Monitoring•Problem solving•Reducing risks•Healthy coping
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Healthy Eating
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
• Small, frequent meals• Fiber: 21-25 g/day for women, 30-38 g/day for men• Protein: 10 to 20% of daily calories• Carbohydrates: 130 g/day; 50-60% of daily calories• Saturated fat: less than 7% of total calories• Limit trans fat• Cholesterol: less than 200 mg/day • Sodium: 2300 mg/day or less• Approximately 2000 calories/day depending upon
goal for weight
Plate Method
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Being Active• 150 minutes per week of exercise for fitness• 1 hour for weight loss• Pre-exercise examination• 150 minutes of aerobic activity at moderately intense levels
each week• Resistance training three times per week• Documented evidence of improved blood glucose control• Decreases cardiovascular risk factors• Weight loss• Increases being well
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Medications
Insulin• Rapid acting• Intermediate• Long Acting• Mixtures
Oral Medications• Sulfonylureas• Meglitinides• DPP 4 inhibitors• Biguanides• Thiazolidinediones• Glucosidase inhibitors
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Taking Medication
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
• Medication reconciliation• Medication adherence
Monitoring• Annual exam with optometrist or ophthalmologist• A1C every three months• Annual blood and urine tests to measure kidney
function• Measure fasting lipids annually• Monitor BP each office visit• Check BG• Check weight• Dental care• Foot care
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Barriers
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Problem Solving
• Cultural issues• Financial issues• Family issues• Lack of skill re. problem solving• Developmental issues• Knowledge deficit re. disease process
and disease management
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Underserved Population/Healthcare Providers
Underserved Communities• Distrustful• Poor health literacy• Inadequate access to
resources• Knowledge deficits
Healthcare Providers• Frustrated and
discouraged by what appears to be “noncompliance”
• Inadequate resources• Unaware of cultural
issues that may lead to nonadherence to treatment plan
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Latino Americans• A1C results among Latino Americans reveals that in
comparison to other ethnic groups, Latino Americans have increased numbers of complications, greater rates of mortality, and higher rates of inadequate disease management
• Type 2 diabetes is affecting the Latino community at exorbitant rates and the number of Latino Americans with diabetes is expected to swell over 100% by 2020
• Today’s Latino American children have a 50/50 chance of being diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes over the course of their lives
• Culturally diverse group• Extent of assimilation determines impact of culture
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Asian Americans• May not initiate questions• Less likely to verbalize dissent with health care provider• 1st generation have greater incidence of Type 2 diabetes
than general population despite lower weights that would not usually indicate risk
• Subsequent generations are heavier and are at risk for developing Type 2 diabetes at an earlier age
• Lower levels of physical activity• Believe foods, disease processes, and treatments are hot or cold• Achieving balance is crucial• Once balance is achieved, may believe interventions are no
longer necessary• Food for the family is more important than individual health
needs
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
African Americans• Delay seeking assistance• More likely to use informal sources of assistance• Experience poor access to resources regardless of
socioeconomic levels• Higher risk for depression and other mental
disorders but fewer than half receive clinical treatment. Those who do tend to terminate treatment early
• Higher rates of morbidity, mortality, and severity of disease
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Age 16 to 24: What were you like?
• Full of questions?• Knew all the answers?• Introspective?• Angry?• Happy go lucky?• Full of angst?• Full of romance?
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Empowerment
• Disease management• Culturally competent
providers• Motivation• Promoting behavior
change
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Reducing Risks• Smoking cessation• Weight loss• Medication adherence• Dietary adherence• Active• Stress reduction• Following the plan of treatment
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Healthy Coping• Stress management• Seeking alternatives to negative behaviors• Developing an action plan• Following the treatment plan• Reevaluating and modifying the treatment
plan when necessary
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Cultural Competency• Blend of action,
beliefs, perspective, and performance guidelines that promote the ability to work effectively in a culturally diverse setting
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Impact of Cultural Competency
• Improves outcomes• Increases health
literacy• Promotes empathy
and mutual understanding
• Narrows gap created by disparities in healthcare
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Closing the Gap• Interaction with healthcare
providers is more reserved but a friendly, personal relationship is expected
• Nonverbal cues are used to indicate respect
• Alternative treatments are important
• May believe that emotions cause illness: susto, espana, nervios
• Fatalistic and focused upon present moment
• Family plays important role
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Narrowing the Gap• Close-ended questions
and simple language will assist with negotiating language barriers
• Encourage questions repeatedly to decrease fear of being disrespectful
• Trained interpreters vs. family members
• Involve family©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Closing the Gap• Eye contact at the
individual’s level• Establish trust• “Speaking”• Skin color• Judicious use of
physical contact– HAIR****
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Motivation: What Triggers Engagement?
• Intriguing and significant
• Requires attention and skill but not too difficult
• Individual meaning• Ability• Connection between
the activity and future plans
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Stages of Change• Not even thinking
about it• Thinking about it• Getting ready for
change• Making the change• Sustaining the
changes over time
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Meeting People Where They Are
• Reason for change• Perception of ability to change• Readiness for change
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Facilitating Behavior Change• Active Listening• Open questions• Mutual understanding
– Do you understand what the patient is saying?
– Does the patient understand the information provided?
• Support, respect and collaboration
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
The Action Plan: Keeping it Real
• Wave the magic wand!!!
• Must be relevant• Must originate with the
client not the provider• Provider plays a supportive
role• Achievable goal• Time frame• Reasonable interventions• Adaptable• Reevaluate• Change when necessary
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Janie D.
• 19 years old• Gestational diabetes• Scared• Blood sugar ranges
150 fasting 250 random
• Not eating because it will make her sugar go up
©RMartinez RN,BSN,CDE
Is Janie ok? What will you tell her?
What’s her treatment plan?
