Study Arms (2)
LATINOS CARES Toolkit
ACTIVE COMPARATORParticipants assigned to the LATINOS CARES condition will receive an I-FOBT kit, DVD and photonovella booklet from the study coordinator. The participant will view the DVD in a private area (headphones are available) using a portable DVD player in clinic before seeing the provider. The DVD will be about 8-10 minutes long. The participant will take the LATINOS CARES toolkit and I-FOBT home after the clinic visit. The participant will be instructed to re-review the materials and complete the I-FOBT stool sampling at home.
Standard Intervention (SI)
ACTIVE COMPARATORParticipants assigned to the standard brochure (SI) will be provided a packet containing the CDC Spanish-language tri-fold brochure titled Screen for Life and an I-FOBT card. The participant will be instructed to review the materials in clinic and complete the I-FOBT stool sampling at home. This brochure describes CRC, risk factors, symptoms, screening tests, benefits of screening, and insurance coverage.
Interventions
Both intervention groups will receive an I-FOBT kit (by study coordinator) with verbal and written instructions in Spanish on how to complete the stool sampling at home within 1 week, and mail the completed kit in the pre-addressed, postage paid mailer. Patients with abnormal results will receive a call explaining the meaning of an abnormal I-FOBT and encouraging them to take specific next steps.
