Diabetes Prevention in the Work Place 10
Fast Facts Workplace stress leads to unanticipated absenteeism costing companies $602/worker/year. 1 People who are physically active for about 7 hours a week have a 40% lower risk of dying than those who are active less than 30 minutes per week. 2 Annual medical costs are $1,429 higher individuals with a BMI value over 30 than those of at levels under 30. 2 1 stress.org / 2 cdc.gov 11
The Need for Prevention Studies have shown that individuals who participate in a structured lifestyle change program can cut their risk of developing type 2 diabetes by more than 50%. Source: American Diabetes Association 12
Supporting Prevention Efforts in the Workplace Multifaceted employee lifestyle change participation programs Obesity, nutrition, and physical activity programs in the workplace are critical elements in addressing type 2 diabetes Research suggests that the progression from prediabetes to type 2 diabetes can be prevented or delayed. The lifestyle intervention worked equally well for men and women and all racial/ethnic groups The American Diabetes Association recommends that people with prediabetes should be counseled on lifestyle changes with goals similar to those of the DPP 13
Example of a Workplace Diabetes Prevention DPP in the workplace DPP in the workplace makes it easier for people with prediabetes to participate in evidence-based, affordable, and high-quality lifestyle change programs to reduce their risk of type 2 diabetes and improve their overall health Engagement in the program when offered at workplace and tied to a wellness program. Peer support Other Ways Coaching 14
DPP Corporate Program Offered through a partnership of ADA and Telligen Program features – Year-long structured program (in-person group, online or distance learning) – Facilitation by a trained lifestyle coach – Use of a CDC-approved curriculum – Regular opportunities for direct interaction between the lifestyle coach and participants – An emphasis on behavior modification, managing stress and peer support 15

Diabetes Self Management – A Workplace Solution? 17
The Underlying Premise “Interventions that encourage people to acquire self- management skills are essential in chronic illness care.” Edward H. Wagner, Brian T. Austin, Connie Davis, Mike Hindmarsh, Judith Schaefer, and Amy Bonomi 18
Known Gaps in Chronic Disease Management Half of people known to have high blood pressure do not have it under control in alignment with clinical guidelines. One-third of people with ischemic vascular disease, appropriate for life-saving aspirin therapy are not taking it. Fewer than half of people presenting to a healthcare provider with depression or anxiety receive appropriate treatment. Fewer than half of people with asthma receive care that is consistent with clinical guidelines. Health Affairs 2001 19
Self-Management is Key to High Value Chronic Care 20
Persistent Risk Factors for Complications Among People with Diabetes 16% with an A1C over 9.0% 60% skip the annual eye exam 16% current smokers 88% overweight or obese 41% physically inactive 74% with high blood pressure 30% - 40% eligible for a statin not taking one CDC, 2017 21
Guiding Principles for DSME 1. Diabetes education is effective for improving clinical outcomes and quality of life 2. DSME has evolved from didactics to empowerment models 3. There is no one ‘best’ education program or approach, but there are key features to success: behavioral and psychosocial strategies improves outcomes; culturally and age-appropriate programs improve outcomes; group education is effective 4. Ongoing support is critical to sustain progress 5. Behavioral goal-setting is effective 22
Self Management that Goes Beyond Disease Management Managing their diabetes mellitus well Enabling people to live well with their diabetes. – Manage as they go about their daily lives – Enhancing their well-being Empowering them as partners 23
Barriers to Effective Self Management Interventions Insurance coverage gaps Suboptimal clinical service design Patient characteristics The disease itself Patient interactions with diabetes care and education providers. Socio-environmental context 24
What Next – An Ecological Approach Diabetes self-management needs to move beyond the status quo programming Diabetes self-management needs to be integrated within the context of a broader ecology of the affected person. Diabetes self-management efforts should be delivered by multiple strategies, including group education, one-on-one counselling, coaching and technology. A multi-pronged strategy that works collaboratively, efficiently and effectively. 25

Workplace Diabetes Self Management Interventions Broadening access and appeal to adults with diabetes (or other chronic diseases).

Workplace Solutions for Diabetes Self Management Summary Multiple cultural and logistical barriers impede the potentially broad impact of diabetes self-management interventions Effective diabetes self-management interventions should include managing well with diabetes in addition to managing diabetes well. The ecological model of self-management implies the value of the workplace as a potential source of key value in diabetes self-management A number of diabetes self-management interventions could be provided as part of workplace health and well-being. 29
