NCT06336122

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of peer coaching models in older adults with unmanaged type two diabetes. The main questions it aims to answer are: Are peer coaching models effective at promoting Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus self-management? If effective, which facets of the peer model are most effective? Peer coaches will Undergo peer coach training. Reach out to peer participants on a weekly/biweekly time frame to discuss self-management and goal setting. Retain records of contact, topics discussed, and general notes on interactions. Researchers will compare differences in the frequency of contact, as well as how peer coaches were matched to peer participants to see if efficacy of the intervention is altered between groups.
