Leon Institute Incidence of Diabetes in Different Populations Paper Review the Resources for this week and focus on the incidence of diabetes in different populations and underlying factors that account for these differences.
Consider why diabetes is on the rise in certain populations.
Consider population characteristics that might influence the likelihood of “at-risk” populations seeking diagnostic testing.
Reflect on behavioral and other motivators for seeking health screenings for diagnostic testing of diabetes. Review the media, Juanita’s Story: Part 4 (Laureate Education, 2018d). What are some of Juanita’s motivators at this stage? How have they changed through her interactions with her doctor?
Consider how behaviors and motivators might differ between younger (18–29 years old) and older (30 years old and over) adults.
BY DAY 3

Post an explanation of behavioral and other motivational factors related to why individuals in the two populations (18–29 years old and 30 years old and older) fail to seek diagnostic testing for diabetes. Then, imagine you are a leader in a health organization. How might you encourage individuals in the two populations to engage in diagnostic testing? Provide one strategy for the younger adult population and one for the older adult population. Explain how and why the strategy you proposed for the younger adult population might differ from the strategy you proposed for the older adult population. Be specific and provide examples.

Program Transcript
DR. SMITH: So Juanita, all your annual checkup tests look really good.
JUANITA: I even lost 10 pounds.
DR. SMITH: Yeah, I can see that. Congratulations.
JUANITA: Thank you.
DR. SMITH: You’re making great progress. Your blood sugar levels have
improved. They’re back in the normal range now.
JUANITA: Oh, that’s awesome.
DR. SMITH: Tell me, what have you been doing?
JUANITA: Everything you told me to. I started a walking group with some of the
other moms and we go every morning.
DR. SMITH: That’s great. Good for you. And what about your diet? By your
numbers, you must have made some changes.
JUANITA: I did just like you said. I cut out the sugar, soda, and alcohol. Oh, and I
even got a book on how to cook healthy, and now my mom and even my oldest
are interested in helping. They all want to eat better.
DR. SMITH: That’s wonderful. Just make sure you keep it up.
JUANITA: Oh, absolutely. And I had an idea, maybe you can help me with it.
DR. SMITH: Sure. What is it?
JUANITA: Remember this pamphlet? You gave it to me last time I was here to
help educate me on the risk of diabetes and how to control my blood sugar.
DR. SMITH: Yeah, what about it?
JUANITA: Well, I think there are other people in my community that also need to
be educated about the danger of diabetes. If you could give me more of these
pamphlets I could pass them out and tell people I know about the risk and what
they can do about it, maybe even recommend that they come into the clinic for a
blood test.

DR. SMITH: I think that’s an amazing idea, Juanita. Look, I can get you all the
pamphlets you want. And I can get you information about other resources and
free community services that are available.
JUANITA: That sounds great. Thank you so much.
DR. SMITH: No, thank you.
