Brief Summary

The goal of this project is to bring together staff and clinicians from Northwestern University/Northwestern Medical Group/Northwestern Memorial Hospital as well as patients and caregivers to assess and redesign the identification and management of hyperglycemia and diabetes during and in transitions of care. There will be 3 different groups for the study: a group of providers \[Group 1\], a group of patients/caregivers and laypersons \[Group 2\], and a stakeholder group \[Group 3\]. Participants will be asked to provide input on potential interventions for a future clinical trial.

Study Population

Provider Group: A clinical multidisciplinary team including inpatient endocrine nurse practitioners, nurse coordinators, diabetes educators, outpatient nurses, attending physicians, and pharmacists. Patient, Caregiver and Layperson Group: The patients who have diabetes/hyperglycemia seen by the Glucose Management Service, the diabetes educator, or the endocrinology service. Caregivers will only be identified by patients if there was a member of their family who helped them with their diabetes management. Laypersons will be identified by research staff as members of the community that can directly advance research and solution development in the field. Stakeholder Group: Any and all stakeholders that are currently involved in the specific care delivery of diabetes.

You may qualify if:

• Provider Group: Multidisciplinary clinical team (including but not limited to inpatient endocrine nurse practitioners, nurse coordinators, diabetes educators, outpatient nurses, attending physicians, and pharmacists)
• Patient, Caregiver and Layperson Group: Patients must have had hyperglycemia or diabetes at Northwestern Memorial Hospital in the last 5 years.
• Stakeholder Group: Involved in the specific care delivery of diabetes

You may not qualify if:

• Provider Group: None
• Patient, Caregiver, and Layperson Group: Patients will be excluded if they did not have diabetes or had hyperglycemia.
