Description

Literature has found Afro-Caribbeans with diabetes have a negative perception of medical professionals. Using a cross-sectional design, Afro-Caribbeans with type 2 diabetes were recruited across 7 churches to determine whether shared knowledge and beliefs about diabetes screening and complications exist and whether they would attend a workshop at their church.
