This study is based on the premise that a community-based participatory research partnership model using a team of an advanced practice nurse case manager, community health educator and physician can be translated into urban community clinics and improve the quality of care and reduce disparities in cardiovascular health in minority and other underserved populations. Abstract
About 500 men and women will take part in this study over a period of 4 years. Patients will be invited to join the study if they have been diagnosed with heart disease, diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, or high blood sugar, and will be assigned by chance to one of two groups. Patients in Group 1 will receive care from their usual provider. Those in Group 2 will have their heart disease and diabetic care managed by a team of a nurse practitioner, a community health educator and their regular physician. Each patient will be in the program for one year.
