Brief Summary
Background: Health coaching is defined as health education, promotion and support by a professional to enhance the well-being of individuals and facilitate the achievement of their health-related goals. However, health coaching has not been adequately assessed in the community health care setting in individuals with T2DM. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of diabetes health coaching in adults with T2DM in the community health care setting on clinical outcomes, self-care behaviours and health care utilization.
