PREVENT Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: PREVENT (Preventing and Reducing Emergency Visits in Diabetes through Education and Telehealth)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Community Health Workers (CHWs), who are race-concordant with participants, will: 1) deliver in-home DM education to increase participants' knowledge and skills; 2) use DM-specific Behavioral Activation to improve DM self-care; and 3) facilitate telehealth visits with the participant's primary care physician (PCP) and a DM nurse educator to increase access to care.
Group II: EUC (Enhanced Usual Care)Active Control1 Intervention
In-home diabetes education with no goal setting or telehealth visits
