    Diabetes
    • Diabetes has been on the rise in young adults for years now. It is no secret
    that diabetes does not discriminate against someone’s age, ethnicity, or
    background. It is ranked number seven in the leading causes of death in
    the United States. Diabetes however, can be preventable with the proper
    exercise, nutrition, and self-awareness of one’s health.
    Overview of the Public Health Issue

    • In recent studies, diabetes has shown that it


    has been slowly increasing in young adults.
    • “During 1999–2016, the age-adjusted
    prevalence of total diabetes significantly
    increased among adults aged 18 years or
    older. Prevalence estimates were 9.5% in
    1999–2002 and 12.0% in 2013–2016”
    (Prevention, 2020).
    Severity of the Health Problem
    • With the increase of type one and type
    two diabetes, young adults are not living
    a good quality life.
    • According to The Search Diabetes Youth
    Study, “The incidence of diabetes (per
    100,000/year) in 2002 to 2003 was
    24.6/100,000/year representing 15,000
    new patients every year with type 1
    diabetes and 3,700 with type 2 diabetes,
    increasing to 18,436 newly diagnosed
    type 1 and 5,089 with type 2 diabetes in
    2008 to 2009” (Hamman et al., 2014).
    Causes of the
    Health Problem and Interventions
    • Some studies have shown that “convenience” is one of the
    most leading cause of the issues.
    • While there are interventions for diabetes it is ultimately
    up to the individual to monitor their health.
    • “The frequency of diabetes had increased by 12.5%
    ADA criteria, 14.6% by 1985 WHO criteria, and 15.3%
    by 1999 WHO criteria” (Gabir et al., 2000).
    Target Population
    • There are many programs out there that will cover multiple
    areas like culture, group norms, individual values, and
    social pressure. Unfortunately, not all of them will cover it
    all in one setting.
    • “7,862 incident diabetes cases in 2017: 122 (1.6%) T1D
    and 7,713 (98.1%) T2D. The incidence of T1D was highest
    in white and black, followed by Hispanic and Asian
    individuals. The incidence of T2D was highest among
    Hispanic, followed by black, Asian, and white individuals”
    (Ferrara et al., 2019).
    Recommendations

    • To be able to reach as many people as possible.


    • To be able to provide healthier choices rather than
    unhealthy choices.
    • Health Belief Model would be a good way to tackle
    the situation. To see if the individual is motivated to
    change the their situation.
    • Gather the data and make appropriate changes on how
    to reach the community.
    Chosen Health Education Program.

    • American Diabetes Association, accredit


    diabetes education programs. (Good
    measures)
    •  CDC-recognized program that helps people improve
    their health, lose weight, feel better, and prevent
    diabetes. Participants receive one-on-one support
    from their CDC-trained lifestyle coach—a clinician
    such as a registered dietitian or certified diabetes
    educator—plus online group classroom sessions.
    Members support each other as they work on
    nutrition, physical activity, stress management, and
    weight loss
    The Rationale for Choosing Health Education Program

    • Support- it’s never easy when trying


    to overcome an illness. But just like
    rope; one string is easily broken, but
    multiple strings are stronger together.
    • The feeling of being in control-when
    dealing with the illness like diabetes
    it is easy to get overwhelmed with the
    amount of information that is out
    there.
    Goals and Outcomes

    • To provide better health at a lower


    cost.
    • Turning science into practice.
    • Coaching
    • To be able to continue being
    successful with managing
    diabetes.
    Any changes you would make to this program to improve outcomes
    and successes?

    • I believe the program should be


    more tech-savvy. Provide an app
    to help the individual be more
    successful.
    • Provide a blueprint from where
    they began to where they’re at
    now on the progress they made.
    Conclusion
    • In conclusion, there are many factors to diabetes increasing, could be
    genetics, lack of exercise, lack of eating healthier, and/or aging. Whatever
    the fact is we need to get it under control. Some individuals, wait until
    they feel sick to see a doctor. By going to the doctor regularly, healthcare
    professionals can catch the signs earlier. Which in return can make the
    individual’s life a little bit easier because they don’t have to stress about
    their health. However, if they do find themselves with diabetes then
    there’s plenty of resources for them.
