Capstone Project Change Proposal
The PICOT is as follows: In patients residing in high prevalence areas (P), what are the impact of community-based diabetes and healthy lifestyle education (I) compared to no education (C) on the disease knowledge and prevalence (O) over six months (T)?
This study will involve educating patients without diabetes, with prediabetes, and people diagnosed with diabetes who come from high-prevalence areas. These individuals must be adults aged 18 years and above (Chawla et al., 2019). Both males and females will be recruited. Participants will be briefed about the study and a consent form will be provided Purposive sampling will be used to recruit the right people for the study (Chawla et al., 2019). Before administering the educational programs, patients will use questionnaires to test their knowledge regarding diabetes and lifestyle behaviors.
Another set of questionnaires will be provided after the training to assess knowledge. These patients will be educated regarding diabetes and healthy lifestyle education Patients will be educated daily throughout the six months (Saleh et al., 2017). Education will include risk factors, management, prevention, and other relevant topics. For people who have pre-diabetes and diabetes, a clinical examination will be conducted after 3 months and 6 months to check blood sugar levels (HbA1C) (Shirvani et al., 2021). Follow-ups will be conducted to note a change in behavior among those who received training.
