The study tests an 'Embedded Clinic' model versus routine care. The clinic provides specialized diabetes management on certain days, addressing factors like food and housing security, diet education, exercise opportunities, and mental health alongside training medical residents.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on improving healthcare delivery rather than testing new medications, side effects aren't the main concern. However, changes in diabetes management could affect blood sugar levels.
