Community Diabetes Education and Primary Care Quality Improvement –<br />
A New Model for Care<br />
Presented by: Michelle Bero, RN, BSN; Allison Seigars, MS; Becky Zook, BA<br />
Room: Promenade C-D<br />
The Community Diabetes Education Outreach Program (CDEOP) is a two-pronged approach to provide<br />
best practices information to primary care clinicians and diabetes self-management education (DSME) to<br />
the communities in Alfalfa, Garfield, and Grant counties in rural northwest <strong>Oklahoma</strong>. The purpose <strong>of</strong> the<br />
CDEOP is to implement a community-based diabetes education program, combined with clinical quality<br />
improvement support for rural primary care practices to improve diabetes self-management and clinical<br />
outcomes. This presentation will provide information about how the CDEOP staff, with guidance from the<br />
Tri-CHIO (County Health Improvement Organization), and through a partnership with TMF, the state’s Quality<br />
Improvement Organization, is providing free DSME program to patients at places and times convenient to<br />
them. The presentation will include information about providing academic detailing and practice facilitation<br />
in primary care <strong>of</strong>fices to improve outcomes for patients with diabetes. Presenters will discuss how the<br />
program is funded, the DSME program being used, and a brief history <strong>of</strong> academic detailing and practice<br />
facilitation as well as how it is being utilized in this project. Nurses are <strong>of</strong>ten the first contact for patients<br />
who are newly diagnosed with diabetes. In addition, they provide education, care for the diabetic patient in<br />
the hospital, and are <strong>of</strong>ten the first person a patient sees during an <strong>of</strong>fice visit. This presentation will provide<br />
nurses with information related to DSME referral resources, the national standards <strong>of</strong> DSME, the role <strong>of</strong><br />
DSME, and how evidence-based DSME can help the patient gain control, lead to better outcomes, and result<br />
in decreased health care cost.<br />
