Conditions
Summary
This study tests the efficacy of a dyadic intervention to mitigate the adverse health consequences of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS- CoV-2 )(COVID-19) in African American (AA) adults with pre-existing chronic health conditions and their informal carepartners (IC). Socioeconomically disadvantaged, older, and Black/African American from rural regions are burdened with greater rates of chronic diseases such as diabetes, hypertension, chronic kidney disease, cardiovascular disease, and stroke.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria10
- African American
- Male and female
- Living in a Medically Underserved Area and/or a designated rural area of South Carolina
- ≥ 18 years and above
- A history of a COVID-19-associated hospitalization, ER or Urgent Care visit since March 11th, 2020
- A previous diagnosis of one or more of the following conditions: type 2 diabetes, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease, or stroke (\>3 months)
- Male and female
- ≥ 18 years and above
- Must live on the same property or community, preferably within a 40-mile radius of the survivor
- Primarily responsible for care provision and/or care/social support in the home (i.e., is not paid for services)
Interventions
The intervention consists of two planning sessions with the dyad (over 2 weeks) followed by eight topic-guided sessions delivered the RN-CHW team over 12 weeks (weekly the first 4 weeks, then bi-weekly) (Table 3). Key components of these televisits include COVID-19 risk mitigation, chronic disease management, medication adherence, family functioning/support, and community and health systems resource identification and referral with ongoing goal planning. The RN-CHW will meet weekly for progress review, follow up planning, and setting up anticipatory guidance for the next session with the dyads. The RN and CHW will also review IC or survivor dissatisfaction and other issues that require more immediate attention. RN-CHW planning will be assessed to make sure each televisit remain topic focused yet incorporates flexibility to suit the needs of each dyad.
