Community Health Worker Nutrition Self-Management Support for Cardio-Kidney-Metabolic Health

Integrating Tailored Medical Nutrition Therapy and Community Health Worker Support to Advance Cardio-Kidney-Metabolic Health

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 5 Nov 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study tests whether adding CHW support to usual nutrition care helps adults with type 2 diabetes, hypertension, or chronic kidney disease manage their diet and health. At Caridad Center, a free clinic in Palm Beach County, Florida, usual care includes medical nutrition therapy from a registered dietitian and medically tailored groceries. Many patients find it hard to keep up dietary changes because of limited nutrition knowledge, cooking skills, food costs, and cultural fit. Two hundred adults will be randomly assigned to usual care or usual care plus INTEGRATE-CHW, a 12-week program of six sessions with a trained CHW. In each session the participant selects one or two goals from the dietitian's plan and builds an action plan with the CHW. The dietitian remains responsible for the nutrition plan. The study will compare nutrition self-efficacy, nutrition literacy, diet quality, food security, and clinical measures between groups at baseline and Week 12. It will also evaluate how well the program fits into routine clinic care.
