This study is of a set of studies with an overall goal to develop and pilot test a collaborative care intervention using motivational interviewing and behavioral activation alongside education and psychosocial support to improve medication adherence tailored to the experiences of people experiencing homelessness and diabetes (DH). Our team's central hypothesis is that medication adherence and diabetes self-care (and eventual glycemic control, health care use/cost) will improve with an intervention tailored to the unique context of DH.~This protocol addresses a pilot study to test patient perceptions of the feasibility and acceptability of study procedures and refine the D-Homes treatment manual through test cases (n=15). With a hypothesis that the D-Homes manual and study procedures will be feasible and acceptable to DH as measured by self-report and post-treatment interview.
This single-arm trial of the Diabetes Homeless Medication Support intervention alone (n=15) will test the perception and feasibility of anticipated study procedures.
